Hillary Clinton’s disdain for Bernie Sanders and his ardent followers is palpable.

It came belching out again Sunday when she told Chuck Todd she feels “sorry” for the “young people” who buy into Sanders’ arguments against her.

On Meet The Press, Clinton was asked about her outburst earlier this week at a Greenpeace activist over accusations she takes “fossil fuel industry” money to support her campaign.

After laughing, she said, “Well, let me first say I’m used to criticism, I’ve been taking it for a very long time but I care passionately about climate change. And I have been working to try to move us away from fossil fuels for many years. When I was in the Senate, I introduced legislation to take away the subsidies. I voted against Dick Cheney’s energy bill in 2005.

“When I got to be secretary of state, I was at the original meeting in 2009 with President Obama where we were trying to convince China and India and others to come on board with accepting some restrictions that would lead to what finally occurred with the Paris agreement.

“So when people make these kinds of claims, which I think now have been debunked — actually the Washington Post said three Pinocchios, the New York Times also analyzed it and other independent analysts have said that they are misrepresenting my record — I’m just not gonna, I feel sorry sometimes for the young people who believe this, they don’t do their own research, and I’m glad we can now point to reliable independent analysis to say, no, it’s just not true.”

Todd was referring to this moment:

“Thank you for talking about climate change,” the woman off camera said in the video released by Greenpeace. She then asked the candidate if she would go back on her word and not have “fossil fuel money” in her campaign.

“I do not have — I have money from people who work for fossil fuel companies — I am so sick,” Clinton said, the smile long gone from her face.

“I am so sick of the Sanders campaign lying about me! I’m sick of it!” Clinton yelled, pointing in the woman’s face.

Bernie Sanders demanded an apology after the exchange.

“In fact, 57 oil, gas and coal industry lobbyists have directly contributed to her campaign,” Sanders said Friday night.

“With 43 of them contributing the maximum allowed for the primary. And these are not just workers in the fossil fuel industry,” Sanders said, referring to Clinton’s defense. “These are paid, registered lobbyists.

“Secretary Clinton, you owe our campaign an apology. We were telling the truth,” Sanders said to cheers.
