As Twitchy told you Thursday, Elizabeth Warren’s campaign is in high spin mode after Politico reported turmoil in the candidate’s Nevada campaign:
News: Warren's Nevada team in tumult as 6 staffers, all women of color, have departed the roughly 70-person campaign in the final stretch w/ complaints of a toxic work environment in which they felt tokenized and w/ state senior leadership at loggerheads. https://t.co/IxZtCX81Qu

On MSNBC with Chris Hayes, Warren accepted some of the responsibility, but couldn’t help but assign some blame elsewhere (Video by way of Grabien News founder Tom Elliott):
Sen. @ewarren blames America’s “legacy” of “racism and oppression” for her campaign staff creating a “toxic work environment” for their minority staff pic.twitter.com/yf29uW10l7

That’s not unexpected, but still amazing.
Thank you @chrislhayes for getting her on the record.

It was extra special when Warren said she was fully accountable, except for it being partly the fault of America’s “legacy.”
So…um…is she to blame as well? https://t.co/GSYjCMNNYj

Maybe you should blame the responsible individuals on your staff. https://t.co/Wtj3YsvI3H

That might be the best place to start.
She can't run her own staff but she wants to be President of everything?

Warren sure is good at blaming other people…

The Dems are having a heck of a time:
You can make an argument that between the Iowa debacle, State of the Union, impeachment acquittal, Trump’s polling at an all-time high, and now this with Warren, Democrats are having their worst week of the 2019-2020 campaign season. https://t.co/16eqb0vJYg
