Clinton speaks about Sanders supporters during private event

[Fusionmunster]

Seriously, this aint trending on twitter.

[NerdyBohemian]

I just checked the hashtag. Leave it to Bernie-bots to have zero reading comprehension skills.

[Seriously?]

I guess that basket is going to get a little bit bigger.

Welcome to the basket #BasementDwellers... Now the No. 1 trending hastag on Twitter.

No its not. Its not even a top 10 hashtag.

You must have the local hastags turned on, it's No. 1 in the US. (until college football starts).

[Yank2133]

The arrogance of this woman knows no bounds. Does she not understand that this condescending rhetoric is the reason that Bernie voters and young voters are not excited about her candidacy or not even voting at all. And for all those out there that say Bernie's criticism's of Hillary are the reason she is tied with Trump, this is the reason, not Bernie.

Oh please.

If Bernie had said the same thing she just said, you clowns would not say a word.

I have worldwide trends on, which is default.

Has anyone checked if Seriously has the same IP as Sean Spicer?

oh ffs hillary stfu

Did you read any of this thread before dropping this turd?

I read the OP and it's exactly the sort of crap she doesn't need to say if she wants to win this.

She said it in February.

Well, sure, that's not as bad as if she said it right now, but even back in February she knew she was going to need these voters.

[RFK Jr.’s Brain Worm]

It's the truth. Am I supposed to feel insulted? I don't. She's acknowledging that young people are getting fed up with how things are and that they're looking for someone who agrees and will push an agenda that is favorable for them. That's politics.

Pretty much everybody I saw pushing this was a Trump supporter, fwiw

[Virginiá]

Well, sure, that's not as bad as if she said it right now, but even back in February she knew she was going to need these voters.

In a way, she isn't wrong. Millennials are far more likely to still be living at home than other generations. However, I also think she was making this point in a rude way. This isn't a new thing for her

At any rate, I like how this was released now. They were probably hoarding it for later, but must have thought it was urgently needed given Trump's current circumstances.

Sorry she hurt your feefees.

She seems totally tone deaf at moments. At the same she's lucky (hell, we're lucky) she got Trump as her opponent.

[DrScholl]

Trump's week was horrible, so you people need some stupid reason to lash out at Hillary. If you think what she said is not true, you need to get real.

[Landslide Lyndon]

This reminds me of people (Hillary included) who tried to sound offended after Obama's bitter/cling.

[ApatheticAustrian]

this is no insult, this is a statistical fact, which is usually reported in all major newspaper articles about frustration of...usually even well-ducated....young people, who are not able to find "fitting" jobs anymore and live with their parents till their late twenties or so.

if this is seem as a gaffe, i would advise candidates to never ever say the truth about anything anymore.

The woosh is strong in this one.

It's Trump folks doing the trending.

It's like many others said before, things like this are controversial only among people who would literally have never supported Clinton to start with.

"what she was saying there is absolutely correct.” — bernie on hrc's comments about young people struggling in our rigged economy.

[ApatheticAustrian]

i am so happy each day, that people like bloomberg, sanders or even warren know that their ego is always second to the needs of the country.

[Badger]

I hate to break it to yall - but you have to want to be offended by Clinton in order to be offended by this.

[Inmate Trump]

Bernie himself has already debunked this by saying she was correct.

Anyway, this is nothing compared to not paying your taxes.

Or calling Mexicans rapists.

Or being accused of rape yourself.

Or even being open to the suggestion of registering all Muslims into a government database.

Or saying women who get abortions ought to be arrested.

Or appearing in a porno.

Or urging supporters on twitter to watch a sex tape.

Or pledging to force another country to fund a massive border wall.

Or giving high praise to Putin.

Or to Kim Jong-un.

Or Saddam Hussein.

Or retweeting quotes from Mussolini.

Or keeping a book of Hitler speeches by your bedside.

Or being endorsed by the North Korean dictator himself.

Or saying that the US will not intervene to protect NATO allies (giving Russia a free hand).

Or asking Russia to hack the opposing candidate.

Or suggesting his supporters assassinate her.

Or encouraging physical violence at rallies.

But 'Murica!
