But I've seen similar things before. Hillary is always right of center on these things. 40 years ago she would have been labelled a republican. That's how far things have swung to the right. Huzzah!

I've been voting for Clintons since 1992 and I have never cried about a campaign, win or lose. These people are loving children.

Or they put a lot of effort, emotion, and trust in a movement that is now ended, in a room full of people also feeling strong emotions, during an official 'concession' speech by the candidate they fought for.

People cry during the general when their candidate loses all the time. It doesn't make these people immature or stupid.

Making fun of people who feel strongly about a candidate by calling them children?

Of course they don't. But it's convenient to them if Democrats do, and Democrats were perfectly content to use Republican propaganda to justify to themselves why they don't like Hillary when her policies aren't significantly different from Bernie's at this point.
