DEMOCRATS PANIC as Millennials Reject Hillary in Record Number
Gateway Pundit ^ | SEPTEMBER 28, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 09/28/2016 11:48:19 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Hillary is down 19 points on the Quinnipiac poll with millennials. Hillary is down 18 points in the FOX News poll with millennials.

Liberal crank Matthew Yglesias is concerned with Hillary’s sinking numbers. Yglesias pointed to a new Gallup poll that shows only 47% of youth voters say they will definitely vote this year- the lowest number in 20 years!

My millennial grandkids aren’t voting either - which would have happened if Sanders had won...

Student Loan Forgiveness won’t mean anything if there are no jobs to be had.

None of ours were Bernie Sanders followers, but I wondered how the youth vote followed him, knowing he was a socialist. I figured those following Bernie hoped to be on the receiving, rather than the giving, side of socialism.

One of the young guys that my employer pays for contract work is a proud little socialist and Bernie supporter. He claims that he won't vote for either Hillary or Trump - but is especially angry with Hillary for cheating his Marxist idol out of a shot at the presidency. I've been enjoying myself at his expense lately, tweaking him about Bernie buying a dacha, er, lake house and such.

At one point, he was particularly annoying with his strident socialist nonsense (kind of like Elaine's commie boyfriend on Seinfeld) and I interjected: "Hey, I've seen your paychecks. You're not on the receiving side of the socialist equation any more." That shut him up for a few weeks.

I have a higher than average following on Twitter, most Millennials (Though I am a GenXer) I took a Twitter poll of my followers (certainly not scientific, but the demographics would be mostly male, mostly in Iowa, most 16-25 years old). I took surveys in late July and late September.

Here ya go (July/September)

Trump 44/45

Hillary 9/7

Johnson 21/31

Other, NotVoting, Meteor Strike 26/17

And in my most recent poll, I had a guy tell me he accidently clicked on Hillary, lol.

Younger people tend to be more liberal, but I'm finding those,in my circle of acquaintances who might vote D find Hillary repulsive, and are casting their lot with Johnson.

The key to this race is the same as every race in the modern era: the most dynamic candidate wins.

Even Hillary’s base sees who s most dynamic. And she can’t hold them.

If she can’t do what Trump is doing, no amount of pandering or TV ads are going to help her. She will have to cheat to even make it close.

Trump should state he will be conducting an investigation into excessive tuition fees and price fixing by the colleges. They are treasonous brooderies which create anti-American students, spread anti-American bias, overcharge American citizens for fund foreign students and stir up racial animosity. Not to mention churning out thousands and thousands of leftist attorneys, journalists, and social workers!

Colleges and Universities are “special interests”. Parents mortgage their future to send their kids to college, students mortgage THEIR futures to pay for college, and the colleges churn out more and more expensive, worthless liberal arts degrees, generate more and more anti-American, anti-western, anti-Judaeo-Christian politicians, lawyers, social workers, teachers and journalists.

Turning this around and going after the under worked, lazy oafish leftists who run these ivory towers could get him more votes and help frustrate their designs.

I happened to tune in to Michael Medved a week or so ago while on the way to the store. I heard him discussing Obama. He was saying that if it were true that Obama rally waned to hurt the U.S. he would have tried harder to do so.

Whaaaat? Obama has the U.S. in tatters after 8 years.

I turned off Medved and won’t be listening again.

What’s happened to Medved? On Monday he was calling Jennifer Flowers an “exotic dancer.” Then praising Mark Cuban. EVERY day there’s an overload of criticism of Trump. I truly believe he will vote for his old classmate Hillary this November.

Using faked profiles to “Encourage” voting correctly is just one of the “Democrat Opinion Engineering” techniques they have been using since 2008.

I read recently about a study of on-line personas on social media. There are bots that do nothing but "comment" on various sites to try to sway opinion. Apparently, these bots can outnumber real people on some sites, especially those sites pushing leftist causes. On conservative sites, there were far fewer bots. The study did not say, but I'll bet that even on the conservative sites, the bots were pushing far left ideology.

“Two of my millennial kids not voting ... on facebook their friends desperate to get them to vote Hillary.”

Funny, it’s the exact opposite in my house.

I’ve got three millenial kids at home. They tell me that most of their friends don’t like Clinton. The two kids who are eligible, will be voting Trump.

Indeed! Not to mention I have two bachelor degrees, so I spent plenty of time in college.... with plenty of professors who didn’t like me or my essays.

She’s offering them Bernie’s deal: Free education, totally free. Forgiveness of student loans. It goes on and on.
