DES MOINES, Iowa Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said theyre ready to move beyond last weeks controversy about what was said at a 2018 meeting, but its still a live issue for many of their supporters.

I am here to tell you that as a woman working in construction and reporting on sports, I believe you 100%, Tanya Keith, 48, told Warren at a Planned Parenthood house party here on Saturday. Because I looked at you and I looked at him and Im like, He did that.

I know that Bernie Sanders said those things to you, because I have seen your body language, and Ive seen his body language, added Keith, who was backing Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and is now undecided. And I know what men say to us in rooms and then what they say to us in person to gaslight us, and I just want you to know that I believe you 100%.

CNN reported last week that Sanders told Warren in a 2018 private meeting that he didnt believe a woman could defeat President Donald Trump in 2020. Warren later confirmed the report, saying, Among the topics that came up was what would happen if Democrats nominated a female candidate. I thought a woman could win; he disagreed.

Warren said she wanted to move on, but the issue came up again at the debate. Sanders denied that he had ever said such a thing. And then afterward, cameras caught Warren confronting Sanders, accusing him of calling her a liar on national television.

At the Planned Parenthood event on Saturday, Keith said she had a little PTSD from the 2016 primary. She was a Hillary Clinton supporter, and watched how vicious it became within the Democratic Party. She said she didnt want to see Bernie Sanders people doing to your supporters what they did to us. She asked Warren what your plans are for shutting that down and winning his supporters over if she becomes the nominee.

Warren refused to elaborate on the meeting or criticize Sanders, saying that they had been friends for a long time.

We fight for the same issues. Weve been allies in these fights long before I ever got into politics. I knew Bernie and worked with him on a whole lot of issues that affect working people, families, poor people around this country, she said. Thats all I want to say about that topic. Because what I truly believe is, were going to have to pull together.

Her campaign said it was the first time a voter had asked her about it on the campaign trail. Watch the exchange here, captured by HuffPost:
