Elizabeth Warren explained why #ShePersisted on 'The Daily Show'

"She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted." - Mitch McConnell's thankful contribution to the feminist movement.

On Wednesday night's The Daily Show, host Trevor Noah had Sen. Elizabeth Warren on to talk about her formal silencing on the Senate floor while reading a letter from Coretta Scott King regarding Sen. Jeff Sessions.

"In the time that this has blown up everywhere, four of your male colleagues have been able to read the letter in full. Is there something to that?" the host asked the Democratic Senator from Massachusetts.

"Look, the main thing is that millions of people are now reading Coretta Scott King's letter," Warren responded, highlighting the importance and relevance of King's words. "I hope everybody reads her letter."

“Do you think Mitch McConnell realized what a solid he’s done you,” the host asked Warren, referring to Senator's supporter's new rallying cry, #ShePersisted.

“What it's done is it’s helped us have a better Democratic conversation,” she responded, humbly brushing past her now-iconic moment on the Senate floor.

“We don’t have the votes in the United States Senate to block somebody like Jeff Sessions [from becoming attorney general]," the Senator continued, "So what we’ve got to do is count on people all around this country to make their voices heard.”
