Sanders-Warren spat ignites debate on lessons of the #MeToo movement

CNN moderator Abby Phillip brought up the alleged discussion between the two senators.
“Sen. Sanders,
CNN reported yesterday, and Sen. Warren confirmed in a statement, that in 2018 you told her that you did not believe that a woman could win the election. Why did you say that?” Phillip asked Sanders.
“Well, as a matter of fact, I didn’t say it,” Sanders responded. “And I don’t want to waste a whole lot of time on this, because this is what Donald Trump and maybe some of the media want. Anybody who knows me knows that it’s incomprehensible that I would think that a woman cannot be president of the United States.”
Phillip then pressed Sanders.
“I do want to be clear here. You’re saying that you never told Sen. Warren that a woman could not win the election?” she asked.
“That is correct,” Sanders said.
Turning to Warren, Phillip asked a question whose premise was that she didn’t believe Sanders — a rare implied rebuke of a major presidential candidate by a debate moderator.
“Sen. Warren, what did you think when Sen. Sanders told you a woman could not win the election?” Phillip asked.
“I disagreed,” she said. “Bernie is my friend, and I am not here to try to fight with Bernie. But, look, this question about whether or not a woman can be president has been raised, and it’s time for us to attack it head-on.”
After the debate, Warren approached Sanders onstage,
refused to shake his hand and confronted him over his depiction of their conversation.
"I think you called me a liar on national TV," Warren told Sanders according to a recording
released by CNN.
"What?" The Vermont Senator responded.
"I think you called me a liar on national TV," she repeated.
"You know, let's not do it right now. If you want to have that discussion, we'll have that discussion," Sanders said.
"Anytime." Warren shot back.
"You called me a liar,” Sanders then countered. “You told me — all right, let's not do it now."
