And Massachusettes [sic] Senator Elizabeth Warren, a favorite guest, is used to toughing it out and resisted his questions about her Democratic endorsement. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;People are having a really hard time now,&quot; Warren told Colbert, when he asked if she was surprised by how well Bernie Sanders has done. &quot;People who work hard and play but the rules are having a hard time getting ahead, and Washington is not working for them. I think Bernie Sanders gets out there and makes that case and I think Hillary Clinton gets out there and makes that case.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Colbert wasn&#8217;t having it.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Bernie Sanders is calling for a revolution,&quot;&#160; he reminded her. &quot;Hillary Clinton is not calling for a revolution &#8211; She believes in slow and steady changes. Which one appeals to you more, Elizabeth Warren?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Warren has not yet endorsed a presidential candidate &#8211; which, given her popularity &#8211; could swing voters. &quot;Let\u2019s be clear where the differences are,&quot; Warren explained. &quot;Democrats are out there fighting for things that affect America\u2019s families. For example, 70% of young people today have got to borrow money in order to go to college. So between Secretary Clinton and Senator Sanders, they\u2019re talking about \u2018should it be free college or debt free college. God bless, that is the right place to have the discussion.&quot;\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Inserted from &lt;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.alternet.org\/election-2016\/watch-colbert-pits-elizabeth-warren-between-endorsing-bernie-and-admitting\" target=\"_blank\">Alternet<\/a>&gt;<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\"><\/font><iframe loading=\"lazy\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/O7rWXURt6PI?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">Comparing asking help from Fecal Dump Trump to calling an arsonist when your house is on fire has to be one of the classic lines of all time!
