Hillary Clinton Stands With Warren, ‘We Must All Persist’

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton jumped into to defend Elizabeth Warren on Twitter Wednesday after Senate Republicans blocked Senator Warren from speaking on the Senate floor.

Clinton quoted Mitch McConnell’s own words which have since gone viral to defend Warren saying: “She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted,'” Clinton quoted McConnell in her tweet. “So must we all.”

 

Clinton’s tweet also included a link to the video of the Elizabeth Warren reading King’s letter.

#ShePersisted

Democrats have been using Mitch McConnell’s words a rallying cry of sorts. Social media has erupted with the hashtag #ShePersisted. California Senator Kamala Harris tweeted a series of photos using the phrase as well.
