totally slipped that 2018 Bernie comment there, didn't ya? Don't wanna talk about that one, eh? I get it.

You can defend her, and look, I get it, publicly she has good policy. I'm not even anti-Warren, just anti-some-of-the-shit-she's-pulled. I'd still prefer Warren over Biden, or Hillary, or Kamala. I'd vote for her next election if she had a serious chance of winning and defeating the GOP. But she doesn't. And when she doesn't have a chance to win she needs to support, not tear down. She needs to pick and choose her battles, time and place, and prioritize what's important. And from my perspective, you're welcome to disagree, she doesn't do that. She throws dirt on allies and highroads in a way that only shames them instead of building up a unified coalition. She did it to Bernie, she did it to Kamala. When she's running, she's primarily concerned with herself. Impending cataclysmic fascist opposition be damned.
