The interview was from December 2016, but yeah he's said something bad about every demographic.

I mean, they don't understand taxes have to go up in order for a lot of Bernie's plans to work, so he's right in a sense.

I'm like 90% sure that taxes going up is a main part of Bernie's platform that his supporters are very much in favor of.

Possibly, but I've seen way too many young supporters oblivious to that. Though I think that's just a general problem that happens regardless of who they support though. Researching your candidates and being well-informed isn't encouraged enough.

They think it's only going to go up on the rich.

People understand that just fine. They are willing to pay more taxes to get better access to things like healthcare and college.

One would have to crunch numbers to determine whether the increase in taxes would still save money from the decrease in college costs/insurance premiums/etc, but the idea (hope?) is that they would.

I mean I'll vote for whoever goes up against Trump, but Bloomberg is a special kind of terrible.

They have the power & want to keep it. When you get used to calling the shots, anything else just seems preposterous.

They're only willing to pay more because a lot of them don't make much to begin with.

They're not willing to work harder to pay for the things they want, so they pretend to be honorable/generous by saying they're okay with their taxes going to pay for all this "free" stuff. They know they'll get way more back than whatever small amount they actually end up paying towards it.

They're just as self serving as everyone else.
