Andrew Yang and Michael Bennet engage in satirical pre-debate Twitter feud

Ahead of the second round of Democratic presidential debates, White House hopefuls Michael Bennet and Andrew Yang engaged in a friendly Twitter feud on Friday.

“I would like to signal to the press that I will be attacking Michael Bennet at next week’s debate,” tweeted Yang, a tech entrepreneur, tagging the Colorado senator.{mosads}

“Sorry @MichaelBennet but you know what you did,” Yang added in the Friday morning tweet.

Bennet quickly replied, tweeting: “Andrew, how did you know I got a C in precalculus in high school — on the retake.”

The debate didn’t end there, as later on Friday afternoon, Yang fired back, tweeting: “If I only get 3 minutes of talking time in the next debate I’m still using all of them to attack @MichaelBennet.”

The two 2020 Democratic hopefuls will take the stage next week for the second round of primary debates, which will be held in Detroit on July 30 and 31.

Yang and Bennet will face eight other candidates, including front-runner and former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) on July 31.
