We can put Rosie O’Donnell down as a “no” for Bernie Sanders 2020 as he’s too old and too white. Sen. Kamala Harris is her candidate:
he is too old mike – we dont need another old white man – move on into now #BernieBye #harris2020

Rosie was responding to Michael Moore who didn’t endorse Bernie but said he likes what he sees:
Too early to endorse, but very happy to see Bernie Sanders running again! Medicare for All, the $15/hr minimum wage, free college tuition — all ideas pushed by Bernie in 2016 (they called him crazy 4 this) and now all polls show the MAJORITY of Americans take the same position!

So, is Rosie and ageist?
Ageism is vile. It’s disturbing how folks are accepting of this type of discrimination. Moreover, u can’t say u believe in equality &then dismiss someone because of their gender/ethnicity. Those 2things don’t go together @Rosie. Many folks are ??♂️??♀️.This is beautiful. #Bernie2020 https://t.co/G7QRn8VUjg

And we’re really going to enjoy the 2016 repeat as the Bernie fanatics trash anyone going after their guy:
@SenSanders is a lot older than me… but he sure has a lot more energy !!

Pelosi is older than him? Is she not qualified for her position?

I will vote on policy, consistency, and honesty, not age. Thank you very much. #BernieSanders2020

Too old?

Of note, however, voters in the crucial early primary state of New Hampshire clearly want an old white man as the nominee:
New NH poll #'s:
Biden 28%
Sanders 20%
Harris 14%
Warren 9%https://t.co/3uR2a9b9yb— Chris Cillizza (@CillizzaCNN) February 20, 2019
Sorry, Rosie!
