Super young voters, those 22 and under known as Generation Z, are offering Republicans a chance to claim some of the youth vote lost when millennials fell hard for former President Barack Obama.

Swing state changes from 2012 to 2016 were more dramatic — and impactful. “In Florida, the Democratic margin of victory for the youth vote from 2012 to 2016 dropped 16 points. In both Ohio and Pennsylvania, the drop was 19 points. In Wisconsin, it was 20 points. These dramatic declines helped give Republican Donald Trump a win in each of these states, pushing him over the top in the Electoral College,” he found.

Somewhere in the last four years of the Bush period, you could sense that people were getting fed up with fake politics...from both the GOP and Democrats.

Whole Obama period....with the media in full swing...it was fairly fake, and people were just skeptical about everything that was said.

So along come Trump. Trump isn’t a political figure and his profile for the past twenty years is business and entertainment. His blend of reality isn’t fake.

What I’m wondering about...when he finishes in 2024, the public isn’t going to easily accept the standard fake political agenda business. I realize we are seven years away, but I’m kinda wondering where to find this next Trump-character.

A Democrat would respond, "Compared to what?"

There is a whole generation who has NEVER seen an up-market in both stocks and real estate.

Read the story. Shaky logic because the study was conducted by a Republic group. Doesn't appear to be hard data supporting the opinions.

Wishful thinking?

If this is true, there just might be a chance for America's survival.

My lovely daighter and son-in-law are embarrassed to be Millenials. Like my lovely wife and I are embarrassed to be Boomers, where so much of this crap started.

Amen to that. The fact that I am lumped-in with the radical dope-smoking Hippie crowd of the late 60's has always been a sore point with me.

I'm a generation Z, so I guess my generation is thinking. I'm a teen who understands the Constitution and what the uniparty is doing to the Constitution. 2018 and 2020 will be a shock to the Dems... 😀

The prospect of spending the rest of one’s life in his parents’ basement would tend to make one look around for better possibilities for the future.......
