Oh, that will go over well with the Bernie folks…

Quote:Leaked audio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee mocking Bernie Sanders supporters as “children of the Great Recession” who are “living in their parents’ basement.”

Speaking at a Virginia fundraiser hosted by former U.S. ambassador Beatrice Welters, Clinton laments in a clip released by the Free Beacon Friday that many of her former primary opponent’s supporters sought things like “free college, free healthcare,” saying that she preferred to occupy the space “from the center-left to the center-right” on the political spectrum.

During the conversation Clinton confesses to feeling “bewildered” by those to her far-left and far-right in the election.

A pre-basket of deplorables comment, eh? I wonder how many more will turn up before election time? It makes me puke how she presents herself as the darling of tolerance and acceptance, and yet, she slams Trump for things he says but she does the same thing in "private" to those who don't flock to admire her colorful pantsuits.

I was a Bernie voter and I don't really see the problem with her comments. Is anything she said false? Folks are hurting, especially the younger generation. It makes sense for us to go after radical ideas, given the circumstances - that's what she said... Nothing ground breaking to me.

So, you missed the mocking part.

Gotcha.

I would have been embarrassed if I'd asked for a dime for spending money from my parents after about 19. Did they help with college, yes they did.

Did they fund my booze, bong, betting and broad budget?

No, they did not.

You're hurting (not you, generic)?

Go get a freaking job. As in, ANY job. Mommy and Daddy done did their part.

Who hasn't mocked a Bernie supporter? Have you spoke to many of them at all - they are clueless.

Who hasn't she mocked over the last 25 years? She hates the people she plans to rule. She is despicable when she thinks the camera's are not rolling.

The more telling part was that she doesn't believe free college can be done but she will make the empty promise (lie) to win the vote of these people she mocks.

Lol at that. We are All hurting after 8 years of Hell under Obama !

I am with her on this. Sanders supporters deserve the mocking for ignoring economics.

Let them eat cake!

That's how she feels inside.

Sanders says he's bothered by Clinton's remarks about young supporters

Bernie is pissed...hope his supporters take note.

Quote:Bernie Sanders on Sunday acknowledged being bothered by Hillary Clinton’s unflattering perception of the young Americans who backed his longshot primary bid against Clinton, saying their campaigns still have “real differences,” despite their joint effort to defeat Donald Trump.

“Of course it does,” Sanders, a Vermont senator, told CNN’s “State of the Union,” in response to a question about whether Clinton’s remarks at a fundraiser amid their hotly contested Democratic primary bothered him. “We have real differences.”

Hillary Camp Promises She Respects Basement Dwelling Sanders Voters After Leaked Audio…

Quote:Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s campaign responded to leaked audio that some called a criticism of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ supporters by trying to assure young voters she’s fighting for them.

In audio released Friday night, Clinton commented on the frustration felt by Sanders’ voters with the current political climate by saying “they are living in their parents’ basements” despite getting an education and a job. Clinton was criticized by Republicans and progressives alike who felt that she was insulting Sanders’ strong youth support.

In a statement released Saturday, Clinton’s campaign said she is actually fighting for millennials.

“She is fighting for exactly what the millennial generation cares most about — a fairer, more equal, just world,” the statement read. “She’s working to create new pathways to jobs and career opportunities, to build more inclusivity and community and to ensure everyone gets a fair shot.”

It’s a setback for Clinton among Sanders’ youthful supporters, who still widely see her as a dishonest politician who is a part of a system they hoped the Vermont independent could overthrow. Many headlines on Saturday accused Clinton of mocking Sanders’ supporters for their feelings and their new arrival to the political world.

She WILL push through TPP. I think Bernie knows this as well. He needs to be pressed on the issue.

Bernie got his vaca house. It's all good.
In the end Bernie was able to be bought and paid for and willingly sold his soul and his followers for a bag of silver.

It's just too bad Bernie is to weak to really say anything.

His behavior post primary has proven what a catastrophically inept, corrupt, and weak individual he is to his very core.

Indeed. He could've been a modern day patriot, a fighter for the little guy, fairness, and leveling the playing field. In the end he sold out.
