Bill Clinton Blames Millennials For Anger, Economy, Congress

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Millennials, there’s a reason Americans are so anxious and angry in this election, Bill Clinton says. It’s you.

It’s no secret that Hillary Clinton’s campaign has been frustrated that younger people are flocking to Bernie Sanders, a septuagenarian democratic socialist.

But in a speech on Thursday to about 1,000 people in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the former president, who was stumping on his wife’s behalf, betrayed yet another frustration with younger Americans. He said the country would be in a much better place now if the youth had not been so apathetic and had voted six years ago, when the tea party wave put Republicans in charge of the House of Representatives.
