Sanders supporters seethe over Clinton's leaked remarks to Wall St.

Supporters of former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Saturday expressed anger and vindication over leaked comments made by Hillary Clinton to banks and big business that appeared to confirm their fears about her support for global trade and tendency to cozy up to Wall Street.

Clinton, who needs Sanders' coalition of young and left-leaning voters to propel her to the presidency, pushes for open trade and open borders in one of the speeches, and takes a conciliatory approach to Wall Street, both positions she later backed away from in an effort to capture the popular appeal of Sanders' attacks on trade deals and powerful banks.

The excerpts of remarks by the former secretary of state, made in 2013 and 2014 in closed-door meetings where audiences paid to attend, were published online on Friday by WikiLeaks, which sourced them to the email account of John Podesta, Clinton's campaign chairman.

Buried under all the MSM noise over the decade old Trump tape, is the Wikileaks confirmation of the suspicion by Sanders supporters that Hillary is owned by Wall Street.

I can barely stand to watch “Meet the Press” this morning...

It is all anti-Trump, he should leave the ticket, and when Juanita Broadrick came up Chuck Todd immediately interjected “those charges were never proven” and changed the topic

The only good thing is that I heard the name Juanita Broadrick on the news tice this morning and once yesterday= for the first time ever.

" Buried under all the MSM noise over the decade old Trump tape, is the Wikileaks confirmation of the suspicion by Sanders supporters that Hillary is owned by Wall Street. "

Which is the whole point of Releasing the tape.

What hurts most is the GOP reaction that shows their disloyalty.

That is what hurts.

I’m already sick of hearing how the Hillary emails would be a big problem for her, if we weren’t all talking about the Trump tape. I guess it’s impossible to cover both candidates in a presidential election. /s

Trump could answer EVERY STATEMENT from Hillary tonight by saying: “Is that your PUBLIC POSITION or your PRIVATE POSITION, and how could we ever know if we didn’t pay you hundreds of thousands of dollars for a speech?”

Or: Does that make every PUBLIC POSITION a LIE? If not, then are you saying the PRIVATE POSITION was a lie?

That's assuming that an illegal "chica" doesn't get the job.

Same here. Yesterday was especially bad for FOX. All day long, dumping on Donald. You would expect that from CNN and MSNBC. BTW they had a field day with the tape. Local talk radio shows as well.

The hag may have lost more Bernie votes than she stands to gain if they can leverage trump's "lewd talk".

I hope he asks her why, if he has the decency to apologize for talk that hurt nobody, why she doesn't apologize for the victims of sexual predators that she did actual harm to....

Time for the gloves to come back off and attack her at her core.

I remember when Bubba was caught with his pants down and all his surrogates were on the TV 24/7 defending the rapist I’ll never forget! The mediapuked were in collusion with the rats and the rapist and his accomplice wicked bitch trying to save his skin..... nothing has changed absolutely nothing after all this years!! Our country is in a crucial fatal position and I’m afraid theirs no turning back! I don’t know if Trump will pull it off but we must continue to fight and fight with all our guts!

Correction: a Clinton can only be rented. If the briber stops the payments he’ll get evicted and the next crook with cash will be given whatever isn’t nailed down.

The GOPe knew this was coming, Bushes were in on it. This was a planned cascade: 1. Have key Republicans reluctantly endorse Trump. 2. Wait for it. 3. Have same Republicans make a big show of un-endorsing Trump.

Has always been one

His campaign was a farce to begin with, it was to just get the millennial losers to take interest in the race so they can convert a majority of them to Clinton supporters

That is all he was for

He knew he wasn’t going to win

Heck wallstreet was funding him as well
