Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, who has risen in the Democratic presidential primary on her pledge to forgo traditional big-money fund-raisers, said this week that if she became the nominee she would continue to skip such events, a reversal of what her position has been throughout 2019.

From the day Ms. Warren announced her plan to skip traditional fund-raisers in February, she had said the pledge only applied to the primary. I do not believe in unilateral disarmament, she said then on MSNBC.

But she told CBS News in an interview posted on Tuesday evening that, even as President Trump has set fund-raising records, she would not change how her campaign raises money if she won the Democratic nomination.

No, I will not be forced to make changes in how I raise money, Ms Warren said. Look, for me this is pretty straightforward. Either you think democracy works and electing a president is all about going behind closed doors with bazillionaires and corporate executives and lobbyists and scooping up as much money as possible. Or you think its about a grass-roots, lets build this from the ground up.


It's a good move, but she should've waited until after being nominated. Established dems and DNC are privately pissed.

I'm just not sure I see the benefit here when you're going up against Trump who is absolutely not going to make such a commitment, and is in fact likely to break the law to get more money.

This makes sense because I prefer Warren over Sanders and even though he has fancier tacos, he has disgusting garbage toppings on them like onions and cilantro so I can't eat those >_>

Seeking a high approval among Republicans is a losing strategy

Considering how well she polls against Trump nationally I'd be surprised to hear about the independent numbers

Onions are too strong. There are very few cases where I can handle them. Cilantro is a genetic thing. You wouldn't eat anything that tastes like pine-sol mixed with mold >_>. Unfortunately due to a genetic characteristic, that is what it tastes like to me. If you taste anything else, it is because you have a genetic trait that makes you resistant to the taste of aldehyde chemicals, so they don't do anything and you whatever background flavors cilantro has. I can't detect any of those background flavors because my sensitivity makes those chemical flavors absolutely overwhelming. I wish there was an actual way for me to experience the flavors that people who like cilantro taste, but as far as know, no such thing exists. The first time I tried it, I didn't know what it was and it was made into a sauce that I mistook for basil pesto (which I absolutely love). It was actually a legit traumatic experience. I literally thought the food had been poisoned >_<

Ooh that sucks. My SIL is actually allergic to cilantro but Im not sure if thats related.

I feel bad for you, it actually is really good. Then again its not like I use it all that often outside of tacos.

However we make this thing called cowboy caviar which uses cilantro and its one of my favorite dishes ever.

Yeah. I don't even get to know what it's supposed to taste like >_<

I've tried to get people to tell me what else it tastes like to them but no one ever actually answers me or has something else to compare it to.

As for onions, they are just too overpowering. My mother made some alfredo lasagna dish once when I was visiting and used like 1/4 of what the recipe called for of onions. I couldn't tell ya what else was in it because I couldn't taste anything but onions. I can eat them in big macs because the flavor is subtle, and I can eat certain onion rings, or when they are super cooked down, like in soups/stews. Also dried onions or onion powder (like spice jar stuff) are fine.

Honestly cilantro is kind of reminiscent of onions in certain respects so you might hate it either way lol.

But Im glad you can enjoy onions in certain dishes. I love onions in soup. Also stew.

Yeah I don't like French onion soup, but onions in various soups like minestrone, generic vegetable/vegetable-pasta soups etc. are fine because all the ingredients cook together so the flavors all blend together.

And I do like scallions. They are mild enough for me to appreciate. Often when I visit my parents, my mother will substitute those in place of onions and that's always fine.

Onions are fine for me(well, not raw), but cilantro tastes like some awful sour soap and it blows. Unrelated, but dill tastes even worse to me. Like, I can tolerate a small amount of cilantro, but dill just ruins anything and everything in even trace amounts.

In any case, I'm glad Sen. Warren has come around, and hope she adheres to the spirit and text of her pledge. It's worth noting that Bernie was always in the right position.

You definitely have the same cilantro trait as I do but at the same time I fucking love dill and will put it in anything, especially tuna or egg salad >_>
