Happy Friday: Andrew Yang and Michael Bennet Mock-Feud Ahead of Next Week’s Debates

It. Is. ON. (Not really.)

As the media speculation grows about which candidates will be going after which opponents at next week’s Democratic debates, Andrew Yang threw down the gauntlet today and let the press know he’ll be going after Michael Bennet.

I would like to signal to the press that I will be attacking Michael Bennet at next week’s debate. Sorry @MichaelBennet but you know what you did.

Bennet responded and, well, basically they just goofed around on Twitter:

Andrew, how did you know I got a C in precalculus in high school — on the retake. https://t.co/3ZdlC0PnLx

If I only get 3 minutes of talking time in the next debate I'm still using all of them to attack @MichaelBennet pic.twitter.com/3dCv01AFsm

Just confirmed with debate officials that @AndrewYang’s microphone will be muted during my rebuttal. https://t.co/YmR7HvkfRF pic.twitter.com/oT3Pe9shai

Yang and Bennet are set to appear at the second debate on July 31st.
