On Abc's "This Week", Sen. Bernie Sanders defended Hillary Clinton after audio was leaked of the Democratic presidential nominee apparently disparaging his supporters. "Well, I agree with her, what she is saying," Sanders said on ABC's "This Week" with George Stephanopoulos. "There are young people who went deeply into debt, worked very hard to get a good education, and yet get out of school and can't get decent jobs... and are living in their parents' basements. There is a point there." Audio from a February fundraiser leaked Friday showed the now-Democratic nominee giving her take on voters to the left and right of her. She suggested that Sanders' supporters were overly idealistic, but called for understanding of their disillusionment with their prospects. "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." Sanders said "of course" it bothered him that Clinton said he sold a "false promise" to his supporters. But, he said, his supporters should still vote for her. "Look at Clinton's positions, look at Trump's positions. Understand that one or the other of those two will be the next president of the United States, and after you take a hard look at those candidate's and their issues I think the conclusion the vast majority will reach is that Clinton is the superior candidate," Sanders said.
