Elizabeth Warren, according to a new book, felt she didn’t win the Iowa Caucuses in 2020 and subsequently the Democrat nomination for President because she isn’t a man, even claiming some voters told her they’d have supported her if she “had a penis.”
The claim surfaced in a new book by NBC News correspondent Ali Vitali titled, Electable: Why America Hasn’t Put a Woman in the White House … Yet.
One tale relayed from the campaign trail involved a question from a voter just prior to the Iowa caucuses who wanted to know how the Massachusetts senator planned to convince white men over 50 that she was the best candidate.
Her third-place finish, though, would later be used as evidence that a woman couldn’t break through. Not that she wasn’t the best candidate, of course, but that her gender was holding her back.
“But here and now she offered her plainest view of the landscape yet: Everyone comes up to me and says, ‘I would vote for you, if you had a penis,'” the story goes.
Here is a video of Ted Cruz.

Ted Cruz Fires Back At Elizabeth Warren
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) fired back during a speech to supporters at the seventh annual Basque Fry in Gardnerville, Nevada over the weekend in what may be an all-time hilarious response.
“Elizabeth Warren told reporters that a guy came up to her and said, ‘I would have voted for you if only you had a penis,'” he told the crowd.
“In today’s Democrat Party, how do we know she doesn’t? How could you possibly know?” he quipped.
“‘My name is Elizabeth, call me Bob, this is my beer,'” he said in a mocking voice as if to emulate Warren.
