An elderly man both verbally and physically assaulted a young Turning Point USA volunteer at the polls, a video posted to X shows.
An elderly man both verbally and physically assaulted a young Turning Point USA volunteer at the polls, a video posted to X shows.
An 18-year-old man was volunteering with Turning Point Action outside a polling station in New Hampshire on Tuesday when an elderly man approached him and began to raise his voice. The confrontation then escalated, as depicted in a video included in Turning Point Action’s Tuesday afternoon X post.
The context of the conflict in the 40 second video is unclear. However, the elderly man is seen yelling, “you have no idea who I am, so how dare you say I don’t know much!”
The volunteer then responded, “you haven’t presented a single statistic.”
The elderly man then seemed to grow increasingly agitated, continuing to yell at the 18-year-old.
“Neither have you! Goddamn. I cannot believe that bullshit. You sat there and dare to look me in the face. And say I don’t know anything,” he shouted, gesturing at the teen before giving him the middle finger.
“That’s what I know. **** you,” the elderly man continued, slapping the volunteer in the face.
After bystanders can be heard saying “woah,” the old man marched away.
“He stayed calm. The left got violent,” Turning Point Action’s X post featuring the video stated. “Don’t cede the ground, show up to the polls. Your vote helps us outnumber these people.”

An 18-year-old stood his ground at the polls in New Hampshire today and was assaulted for it. He stayed calm. The left got violent. Don’t cede the ground, show up to the polls. Your vote helps us outnumber these people.
Posts at X.com have identified the deranged old boomer.
I hope he’s arrested.
In this instance, Grandpa deserved to get slapped right back, but understandably, the young man was probably too startled to react in any way at all, at least for the first few minutes afterward. Hopefully, someone phone-filmed and will upload the incident.
Whoa. Geezer has issues...
Deranged boomer?
That’s some kind of special ageist bigotry
Which part is bigotry - noting his age, or objecting to his obviously deranged behavior?
This is all over Facebook in NH.
People even posted his personal Facebook page.
I sent him a message saying he is going to look great in ORANGE.
I would assume his FB account will be closed today
it’s a shame he was not carrying. if it was me, their heads would explode like a pumpkin as i defend myself.
at the minimum, i’d love to feel what it is like to kick some old folk’s ass and kick their heads with my doc martens
Does anyone say deranged millennial? In a headline?
No
So, is he “anybody”? He seemed to think he was very important. And now, at least he is notorious.
A deranged millennial is more likely called something like ‘punk’.
But, he'd likely do what we all do, viz. respond to the assault with a menacing stare.
Stating the obvious is wrong? What world do you live in?
He’s a Chromebook salesman, which is hilarious.
Nobody I ever heard of.
He is just an old man who was very upset. TDS or just off his meds. Grumpy Old Man.
However, he committed assault.
The TP USA young man should file charges with the Laconia, NH police department.
The old man should be arrested and face a judge.
Most likely IF this happens he will be convicted and given probation UNLESS he has a previous record.
I saw the vid. The “slap” didn’t even knock the kid’s glasses off.
That liberal fart’s lucky some enraged conservative wasn’t on the scene.
But, he’d likely do what we all do, viz. respond to the assault with a menacing stare.
Dream on. It will get worse. Expect the Demonicrats to initiate more Charlie Kirk events.
Someone is pushing this hate boomer mantra. They want to divide by making the younger generations jealous of older generations who worked hard and accumulated wealth because it just ain’t fair that they were able to afford to buy a home and raise a family, even during the Carter malaise era and the resulting high interest rates under Reagan.
A non bigoted world. We were taught all through growing up how to speak about people and groups. This is bigotry
Stop talking to me
Yes
