Hilarious karma really

If you don't know backstory, a Bernie supporter asked Warren a question on CNN suggesting that Bernie should get the nomination with a plurality (not a majority) becuase this would be the "will of the voters."

Warren absolutely crushed the questioner and Bernie because it was Bernie himself who said THE OPPOSITE in 2016

"Sanders and his allies want Democrats to ignore the rules he helped rewrite and coronate him at the party's convention this summer if he arrives with a plurality — but not a majority — of the delegates. Even though Sanders has long been wary of the role party leaders can play in hand-picking a nominee, his position now is a reversal from the one he took in 2016, when he looked to so-called superdelegates to overcome Hillary Clinton's lead in regular delegates at the end of their primary race."

This was Warren:

"That was Bernie's position in 2016, that it should not go to the person who had a plurality," she said during a CNN town hall meeting. "And remember, his last play was to superdelegates. So the way I see this is, you write the rules before you know where everybody stands. And then you stick with those rules. ... I don't see how come you get to change it just because he now thinks there's an advantage to him for doing that."

Ouch
