Did Elizabeth Warren Just Defend Kristen Gillibrand by Claiming She Is Sexually Promiscuous?

Bull, meet red cape. Red cape, meet bull.

Gillibrand responds:

And because Twitter traffic is all that counts, TheSecondMostSlappableFaceOnTheInternetTM call’s the fight for Gillibrand:

This is all nonsense. Gillibrand has made whatever national profile she has on the issue of sexual harassment.

And it is a poorly kept secret that Gillibrand fancies herself running for president in 2020. But she isn’t the only woman senator with her eye on the White House.
