Gen Z Loves Donald Trump More Than Any Other Age Group
Newsweek ^ | 2/27/24 | Ewan Palmer

Donald Trump has a higher approval rating among young adults than any other age demographic, according to a poll.

A Harvard CAPS–Harris survey of more than 2,000 registered voters showed that 57 percent approved of the job the Republican did as president, with 41 percent saying they disapproved.

When the results are broken down further, they show that almost two-thirds (64 percent) of voters in Generation Z—or those aged 18 to 24—approved of Trump's job as president. The age range of this demographic means some respondents were children during Trump's time in office, 2017 to 2021.

However, the results could be yet another warning sign for President Joe Biden's reelection hopes. In 2020, young voters were crucial in Biden's victory, as Generation Z and millennials supported Biden over Trump by margins of about 20 points in the record-breaking turnout, according to analysis by the Pew Research Center.

"We don't know enough yet," Neil O'Brian, a political scientist at the University of Oregon, told Axios. "But this idea that young people are gonna keep populating into the Democratic Party? There are some question marks around that."

“Fantastic news.”

Yes. But it really doesn’t matter.

If every single voter in America were to vote for Trump, some RAT still will be inaugurated 1/20/25.

At one time, I think the Boomers I group outnumbered us, but they are beginning to age out. Our group did not have the luxury of easily finding jobs and, as a result, were forced to study harder and avoid unhealthy habits like drugs and promiscuity.

We also got schooled by the idiotic policies of Jimmy Carter rather than reaping benefits from them as did our older cohorts. The blanket pardon to draft dodgers was one example, but even more so was the fact that they younger boomers were unable to get home loans due to the simultaneously high interest and unemployment rates. Many of us worked multiple part-time jobs just to string together enough income to get by. Work ethic + more healthy lifestyle choices = a high probability that we will outlive the Boomer I generation.
