    And then lectures him on something while Steyer seems to try and moderate. We need some lip readers to tell us what she was saying and Sanders response.

    "Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) did not shake hands following the conclusion of a tense Democratic primary debate in De Moines, Iowa Tuesday night.

    In the video above, Warren can be seen moving toward Sanders. But the Massachusetts senator pulls her hand back when Sanders extends his."s

    And she accused him of calling he a liar on national TV.

    "In audio released by CNN Wednesday night, you can hear Warren saying, "I think you called me a liar on national TV."

    "What?" Sanders asks.

    Warren repeats, "I think you called me a liar on national TV."

    "You know, let's not do it right now. If you want to have that discussion, we'll have that discussion," Sanders said, to which Warren responds, "Anytime."

    "You called me a liar. You told me -- all right, let's not do it now," Sanders says testily."
    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...mpaign-elizabeth-warren-handshake/4479822002/

    The entire thing was a setup by the CNN moderator asking Bernie "Did you say to her a woman could not be elected" to which he gave a firm no. Then she turned to Warren and asked "When he said to you a would could not be elected how did you feel". She framed the question as fact.

    Looks like we're about to have a knockdown drag out and oh BTW Sanders had his biggest after debate fund raising day.

    Who's going to win this?

    Judge Isherwood called everyone a liar, but his job is forever, so he doesn't have to worry about justice or truth or the American way.

    This was staged. CNN is trying to dismiss Sanders.

    Steyer was not trying to moderate the conversation. He knew that the cameras were on their exchange. So, he inserted himself into the picture. When Warren and Sanders seperated, he took Sander's hand and said, "I don't want to get into the middle of that...." Sure he didn't. He can't get enough media exposure, so he has to make insertions whenever he can. Like a backup player standing in the background while the media interviews a superstar. No one is buying his, "I'm more Trump, then Trump" campaign platform.

    Most won't. Fox is of course. It is too classic to ignore. I can lie about you, but don't you call me a liar!!! CNN is covering it. They published the transcript, and have taken Warrens side in this. The rest won't touch it.

    As much as I dislike Bernie Freeshit Sanders, I will take his side on this. Fauxahontas is a proven liar on many fronts.

    Bernie is attending the Women's March today in New Hampshire.

    E. Warren Tweeted that she is "standing" with all the women who are marching today across the country....but she's not attending any march.

    Bernie is marching; Liz is standing. Maybe it's not that a woman can't be President...it's just that Warren can't.

    But apparently, cnn has taken up sides with warren...otherwise they would not have released it. The DNC really, really, really does NOT want bernie to be the nominee.

    All I can say is that the Democratic convention is going to be interesting.

    I keep thinking this could be like in the late 1950's and 1960's when I would sit in front of the black and white TV and watch the conventions with my dear mother. The days of the smoke filled rooms and the wheeling and dealing. We actually should go back to that and get rid of the primaries.

    I wouldn't be surprised if none of the top three can get the nomination on the first vote. There's also the Bloomberg factor. Should be interesting.
