Warren and Sanders Seemed to Calm Things. Then the Debate Ended.
Elizabeth Warren called Bernie Sanders her “friend” at the Iowa debate, even as they disagreed over what Mr. Sanders said in a 2018 meeting. Afterward, they exchanged words (but didn’t shake hands).Perhaps the most intriguing moment of Tuesday’s Democratic debate came moments after it had concluded.
Senator Bernie Sanders, fresh off two hours of verbal sparring with other candidates that included a clash with Senator Elizabeth Warren over whether he told her in a private 2018 meeting that a woman could not be elected president, reached out to offer her a handshake.
But Ms. Warren did not reciprocate.
The pair then briefly exchanged words; Mr. Sanders gesticulated at Ms. Warren, turned and walked away.
