NBC noted Sanders’s 2-1 advantage over Hillary Clinton with younger voters, in a debate that has ceaselessly pandered to them by including questions from YouTube celebrities about hoverboards or whatever. Clinton—who barely attempted to sound impressed that one of the YouTubers had five million views—said she was trying her best to appeal to these voters, which may help to explain her lolz Remember the 90s??? approach to social media.
