Elizabeth Warren's claim that Bernie Sanders said something sexist to her a couple of years ago that the following points in her favor:

-- It could be that Bernie is going senile and doesn't remember the incident. Even if he's not that old, he looks and sounds it.

-- It totally sounds like a thing Elizabeth Warren would say happened to her.

But against her we have:

-- It totally sounds like a thing Elizabeth would say happened to her, because she has a history of lying about stuff like this.

-- Bernie is a deluded crank, but I've never heard anyone question his sincerity.

-- There is footage from decades ago of Bernie boring small children as he goes on and on about the importance of female politicians and the hope that a woman will be president someday.

-- Bernie endorsed Clinton after all the shit that was done to him on her behalf, and she had approximately nothing going for her beyond the possibility of First Woman President. Even the possibility of President Trump if he refused to endorse her should have been a plus for Bernie, because it means he can run again this year, instead of having to wait if the Democrat wins, until 2024, when the election might be preempted by his funeral.

-- Even if Sanders DID tell Warren that a woman can't win, that's not sexist, it's an assessment of the electorate's sexism.

-- Bernie Sanders is a man. Elizabeth Warren is not.
At least until men are recognized as an oppressed victim group. Then she's probably going to have a surprising revelation for us all... (hey maybe someone should point out to her that as a straight white woman, she's a member of the single largest demographic in the US and thus the furthest thing from a minority).

Fun facts about Elizabeth Warren: she is so straight, she's not only married to a man, his name his actually "Mann".
Now, I wonder if he's even real. If you were prone to making stuff up on applications and the like, and you had to invent a fictitious husband, it seems like the most unimaginative fake name you could give him would be "Bruce Mann".

Also, per Wikipedia, her children are "2, including Amelia". What. Amelia's spouse's name is "Sushi". Why does everything about Warren sound like she made it up in a hurry?
