do you think that women politicians have never once had to defend their status as women and it's weird she had an argument?

or that, given the story has already leaked, it is strange that Warren correctly anticipated it would come up during the debate and came up with a speech to deflect the issue? Should she instead have had no planned response and just stumbled around on stage?

That's not coincidental - it's logical! Believe Warren personally leaked it if you want but her response at the debate doesnt support it being a masterful 5d chess move one way or the other.

sure they have, and i figured he was just being candid in whatever convo they had. said as much yesterday.
the coincidence is that a year old private conversation happened to be known to her staffers, happened to be leaked to the press the day before the final debate, happened to be against one of her main rivals, and it happened to be used to pivot the negative into a positive using odd knowledge and lines meant for soundbites.

this isn't saying anything is particularly masterful, just means that the intent was always to bring up her identity as a woman and use it to leverage votes for her while siphoning votes from her opponents. bear in mind this wasn't my opinion until she spun it that way in the debate. up to that point my belief was that she wasn't playing that game, that it's a misunderstanding or just something else unintended. once she did and started rattling off random bits of info and did a line that was clearly rehearsed - nah, she knew. like her dumbfounded look when Bernie responded plays at a sharp contrast between a Warren who knew what she was saying and how she was going to say it and a Warren who doesn't. if she figured out exactly how to say all that info with less than a day of prep, congrats to her, though i don't think i give her that credit.

Honestly why are people still watching these Dem debates?

i generally just go for clips and stuff afterwards but figured i'd tune in.
also fuck no, i don't want apple, google, or any company to give in to that. allowing the government a back door is a firm no.
