Democratic presidential contender Bernie Sanders has had it with a certain “pattern” of behavior from Bill Clinton … not THAT behavior, even though it does involve young people.
Sanders turned to social media to denounce Bubba for a comment he made about the candidate’s young supporters, which followed on the heels of the former president challenging Black Lives Matter anti-cop activists at a campaign event last week.
“We should be encouraging young people to get involved in politics, not disparaging them. This seems to be a pattern,” Sanders wrote, while linking to a Daily Beast article.

Clinton joked Friday about Sanders’ supporters attacking Wall Street over income inequality.
“I think it’s fine that all these young students have been so enthusiastic for [Hillary’s] opponent, and it sounds so good, just shoot every third person on Wall Street and everything will be fine,” he said while speaking at a campaign rally.
“That’s a joke, it’s a total joke,” Clinton later clarified with NBC News.
“You know, we all need to lighten up here, have a little sense of humor,” Clinton added, but Bernie and his crew weren’t laughing.
Here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:

@thehill Not at all. We don’t blame Wall St. We blame corrupt politicians. #MoneyOutVotersIn #DemocracyAwakens #FeelTheBern

@thehill no, Bill, most Sanders fans are anti-war and so they’re pacifists and i don’t think, they would shoot people!

@CNN Bill Clinton you flooded Black and Brown neighborhoods with police who actually shot ‘every third person’ on main street

@CNN Bill Clinton so quick to protect Wallstreet paracites from any kind of reform is classic example of how neoliberal Dems have become

@CNN Another ridiculous comment. Bill worry about wife’s lack of transparency. Hillary tear down that wall. #transcripts

@BernieSanders Apparently gun violence is “no laughing matter” until it can be used in a joke against Sanders supporters.

@BernieSanders Bill Clinton said this while his wife is out fighting against gun violence? Wtf?
