Hacked audio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee describing 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 says in a clip released by the Free Beacon that many of her former primary opponent's supporters sought things like “free college, free health care,” saying that she preferred to occupy the space "from the center-left to the center-right" on the political spectrum.


The audio, which according to the Free Beacon was "revealed by hackers who breached the email account of a campaign staffer," surfaces the same week that Sanders hit the campaign trail to try to win those same young voters that Clinton has struggled to attract since clinching the Democratic nomination.

[h=6]OCTOBER 01, 2016 -[/h][h=1]CROOKED HILLARY QUESTION OF THE DAY[/h]
Does Clinton Lump The Sanders Supporters She Says Are “Living In Their Parents’ Basement” In The “Basket Of Deplorables?”
QUESTION OF THE DAY: “Secretary Clinton, at a closed-door fundraiser in February you mocked Sanders supporters as 'children of the Great Recession' who are ‘living in their parents’ basement. Do you think they also belong in the ‘basket of deplorables?’” – Jason Miller, Senior Communications Advisor

WHY IT MATTERS

In February Clinton Told A Closed-Door Fundraiser That Sanders Supporters Were “‘Children Of The Great Recession’ Who Are ‘Living In Their Parents’ Basement.’”“Leaked audio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee describing Bernie Sanders supporters as ‘children of the Great Recession’ who are ‘living in their parents’ basement.’” (Cristiano Lima, “Clinton Gives Her Take On Sanders Supporters In Leaked Fundraising Recording,” Politico, 9/30/16)

In September You Said One Half Of Trump’s Supporters Belong In The “Baset Of Deplorables” And The Other Half Have Been Duped To Believe The Government Had Let Them Down. “Consider the reaction over the weekend to Mrs. Clinton’s comments Friday night that ‘just to be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the ‘basket of deplorables.’’ … Yet the rest of what she said was almost as insulting. She said Mr. Trump’s other supporters are ‘people who feel that the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures, and they’re just desperate for change. It doesn’t really even matter where it comes from. They don’t buy everything he says, but he seems to hold out some hope that their lives will be different. They won’t wake up and see their jobs disappear, lose a kid to heroin, feel like they’re in a dead-end. Those are people we have to understand and empathize with as well.’” (Editorial, “Clinton And The ‘Deplorables’,” Wall Street Journal, 9/11/16)

Hacked audio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee describing 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 says in a clip released by the Free Beacon that many of her former primary opponent's supporters sought things like “free college, free health care,” saying that she preferred to occupy the space "from the center-left to the center-right" on the political spectrum.

"Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement," she said. "They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don’t see much of a future."
Clinton added: "If you’re feeling like you’re consigned to, you know, being a barista, or you know, some other job that doesn’t pay a lot, and doesn’t have some other ladder of opportunity attached to it, then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be part of a political revolution is pretty appealing."

Friend,

In a leaked audio, Crooked Hillary mocked the millions of Americans who proudly voted for Bernie Sanders, calling them basement-dwellers and hopeless.

This comes just weeks after Hillary told donors at a closed-door fundraiser that tens of millions of patriotic men and women are deplorable, irredeemable, and un-American.

We can’t let Crooked Hillary get away with attacking the great citizens of our country.

We’re working on an ad to show the 12,029,699 Americans who voted for Bernie exactly what Hillary thinks of them -- and we need your help raising $1 million to get it on the air.

And because this is so important, I am going to EXTEND our TRIPLE-MATCH opportunity for the next 24 hours to ensure we reach EVERY single one of those 12,029,699 Americans.

If you contribute $35, I’ll MATCH it to $70.
If you contribute $50, I’ll DOUBLE MATCH it to $150.
If you contribute $75, I’ll TRIPLE MATCH it to $300.

Anything else above $75, I will proudly triple match.

Crooked Hillary has been trying to win over the millions of Americans who refused to vote for her in the primary -- but she still can’t close the deal.

She’s even lied about her position on job-killing trade deals such as TPP, which she once called the “gold standard” of trade deals.

This is our golden opportunity to expose Crooked Hillary as a power-hungry elitist who will say and do anything to get votes.

There are only 38 days left. We need to expose her NOW.

Please contribute any amount you can to help us expose Crooked Hillary to the millions of Bernie voters across the country.

Thank you,

Donald J. Trump

[h=6]- OCTOBER 01, 2016 -[/h][h=1]RIPPED FROM THE HEADLINES: CLINTON CALLS SANDERS SUPPORTERS BASEMENT DWELLERS[/h]
“They’re Children Of The Great Recession. And They Are Living In Their Parents’ Basement.” – Hillary Clinton On Sanders Supporters

Washington Examiner
Headline:
“New Audio: Clinton Refers To Sanders Fans As Frustrated, Basement-Dwellers”


  • “Hillary Clinton suggested in February that many of the young people who supported Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in the Democratic primary were unemployed political neophytes who still lived with their parents, according to new audio released this week. ‘Some are new to politics completely. They're children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents' basement. They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don't see much of a future,’ the now-Democratic nominee said at a private fundraiser held in Maclean, Va.”

Fox News Headline:
“In Tape, Clinton Characterized Much Needed Young Sanders Supporters, Calls Self 'Center Left, To The Center Right'”


  • “Hillary Clinton is back on the campaign trail locking arms with former Democratic rival Bernie Sanders to tout debt-free college education. But Clinton has privately distanced herself from such promises and other progressive ideals championed by Sanders, instead describing herself as a ‘center-left to the center-right’ candidate, according to a recently released audiotape. Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, made the comments in February, at a private fundraiser in northern Virginia.”

CBS News Headline:
“Hillary Clinton Comments On Bernie Sanders Supporters In Leaked Recording”


  • “A leaked audio recording of Hillary Clinton at a February fundraiser shows the Democratic presidential candidate had once painted a wide swath of Bernie Sanders supporters as idealists ‘new to politics completely’ who are ‘living in their parents’ basement’ -- though she stressed at the time the need to understand their frustrations with the economy. ‘They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement,’ Clinton says in the audio clip, first published by the Washington Free Beacon earlier this week. ‘They feel that they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don’t see much of a future.’”

Politico
Headline:
“Clinton Gives Her Take On Sanders Supporters In Leaked Fundraising Recording”


  • “[A]udio of a conversation between Hillary Clinton and donors during a February fundraising event shows the Democrat nominee describing 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 says in a clip released by the Free Beacon that many of her former primary opponent's supporters sought things like ‘free college, free health care,’ saying that she preferred to occupy the space ‘from the center-left to the center-right’ on the political spectrum.”

The Hill
Headline:
“Clinton Critiques Sanders Fans In Leaked Audio”


  • “Audio from a private fundraiser during the primary election shows Hillary Clinton critiquing supporters of far-right Republicans along with fans of her then-rival Bernie Sanders, whom she suggested were overly idealistic. … Clinton said that many Sanders supporters are disillusioned with the path in front of them. ‘Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement,’ she said. ‘They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don’t see much of a future.’”

The Week
Headline:
“Hillary Clinton Calls Bernie Sanders Supporters Uninformed Basement Dwellers In Hacked Audio Clip”


  • “Hacked audio of Democrat Hillary Clinton speaking with donors about her then-primary rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders, in February shows the nominee describing Sanders' supporters as uninformed and idealistic ‘children of the Great Recession’ who are ‘living in their parents' basement.’ In this election, Clinton says, there ‘is a strain of, on the one hand, the kind of populist, nationalist, xenophobic, discriminatory kind of approach that we hear too much of from the Republican candidates,’ while, ‘on the other side, there's just a deep desire to believe that we can have free college, free healthcare, that what we've done hasn't gone far enough, and that we just need to, you know, go as far as, you know, Scandinavia, whatever that means, and half the people don't know what that means, but it's something that they deeply feel.’”

[h=6]- OCTOBER 01, 2016 -[/h][h=1]​SPEECH EXCERPT: DONALD J. TRUMP ON CLINTON’S BASEMENT DWELLER COMMENTS[/h]
As #BasementDwellers Trends on Twitter, Donald J. Trump Will Take Hillary Clinton to Task Over Her Comments Mocking Bernie Sanders Supporters
**Remarks As Prepared**

A new audio tape that has surfaced from another one of Hillary’s high-dollar fundraisers shows her demeaning and mocking Bernie Sanders supporters.
In the tape, Hillary attacks Sanders supporters as “living in their parents’ basements,” and trapped in dead-end careers. She describes many of them as ignorant, that they want the United States to be more like Scandinavia but that “half the people don’t know what that means.”
To sum up, Hillary Clinton thinks Bernie supporters are hopeless and ignorant basement dwellers.
Then, of course, she thinks people who vote for Trump are deplorable and irredeemable.
And let’s not forget, at the recent debate, Hillary Clinton all but said that most of the country is racist, including the men and women of law enforcement.
In short, if you are not a diehard Hillary Clinton supporter from Day One, Hillary Clinton thinks you are a defective human being.
How on earth can Hillary Clinton try to lead this country when she has nothing but contempt for the people who live in this country?
She slanders and attacks anyone who wants to put America First, whether they are Trump Voters or Bernie Voters.

The Hillary Clinton campaign has canceled joint appearances with former primary opponent Bernie Sanders after he admitted that "of course" it bothered him that Clinton seemed to be talking down to his supporters in hacked audio from a fundraiser.

The two were set to have joint appearance together Monday. Instead, Sanders will appear in both Iowa and Wisconsin on Monday to boost her candidacy without her.

:):):):):):)

What is so funny about all of this is she is constantly talking about tuition free college.

COLUMBUS, Ohio—Being a field organizer for Hillary Clinton at The Ohio State University means being rejected a lot.

Tyler Hoisington, 24, is one of four full-time, paid staffers focused on registering new voters on the campus of this battleground state’s flagship university, which has 65,000 students.

Over more than two hours yesterday, he knocked on every door on both sides of four city blocks, including a few multi-level apartment buildings. Despite his best efforts, he could not get a single person to either register to vote or sign a card committing to support the Democratic nominee for president.
