Nomiki Konst, a former surrogate for Sen. Bernie Sanders’s (I-Vt.) presidential campaign, on Friday said that the “Me Too” movement has been weaponized against the senator in the wake of s ex ua l misconduct allegations against staffers from his 2016 presidential campaign.
“I think, unfortunately, the ‘Me Too’ movement has been used as a political weapon in this case,” she continued. “It has to be dealt with no matter what, but it is not something that feeds into this old Bernie bro narrative.”
“The deputy campaign manager for Bernie Sanders was a woman. The chief of staff for Bernie Sanders had been a woman for years. I mean, there is always a need for women in leadership to address these issues, but I’ve seen this played out in the media. We have to remember that there are women that have been part of this movement, and they shouldn’t be erased,” she said citing female Sanders supporters such as herself, former Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner (D) and actress Rosario Dawson.
