#basementdwellers-The actual words...on Hillary Clinton’s remarks [Pajama Boy to the rescue]
yahoo.com ^ | 10/1/16 | Michael Pajama Boy Walsh

Posted on 10/01/2016 3:54:20 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The phrase “basement dweller” exploded on social media Saturday after hacked audio appeared online of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaking to donors about Bernie Sanders’ supporters.

The notion that Clinton would dismiss the idealism of her former rival’s fans and millennial voters as lazy, misinformed youngsters who haven’t moved out of their parents’ homes conformed with many perceptions of the Democratic candidate as an out-of-touch elitist. The words “basement dweller,” which she never actually said, started to trend alongside “basket of deplorables,” which she did say to denigrate large swaths of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s supporters.

PJ Boy to the rescue.

She said what she said, kid. No two ways about it.

If you're too ignorant to see the disdain she holds for those not of her class, that is your problem.

Americans of all races, ages, and socioeconomic levels see her for what she is: an elitist thug.

She’s a career criminal. Would’ve been better if she’d stayed in the basement.

Keep runnin’ your yapper, Hillary. Like Tim Kaine doubling-down on “basket of deplorables” describing American patriotic voters.

Liberals always find excuses for the horrible things other liberals say about them..go to any liberal cocktail party they use the N word more than you could ever imagine..call a liberal a buffoon, the liberal responds “Well maybe you have a point” a Republican calls that liberal a buffoon and the liberal responds “How dare you Im offended”

Pay back for the Palin “I can see Russia from my house” fictional comments they would repeat.

Well, we know Hillary hates Blue Collar workers who she calls deplorable, and not she hates Millennials, whom she calls basement dwellers. So far she hates about 2/3rds of the US Popultion

This is an insult to basement dwellers!
I was 25 years old, lived in a basement apartment in Tulsa for several years after getting out of the Military. Had my own job in a factory, owned a truck, lived alone till married. Parents 3 hours away. I was on my own and loving it! The best time to be alive, totally independent!
When the tornadoes came through Tulsa all the above ground dwellers paid me a call!

I’M INSULTED! Can I get reparations for that?
