The Kids Aren't Alright With MAGA (Time Magazine)
Time Magazine ^ | July 1, 2026 | Phillip Elliott

There’s no denying that President Donald Trump has a vise-like hold over the current Republican Party. Time and again, he has shown an uncanny talent to chuck chaos at even bipartisan bills, like the one House Speaker Mike Johnson sent to the White House on Monday only to be met with “yawn” from his fellow Republican Trump. At the same time, it now looks like Trump and Johnson may end up lashing an annual must-pass, traditionally bipartisan defense bill to a Trump pet project that would make it harder for Americans to vote in this fall’s elections—and force lawmakers to pick funding the military through a stand-alone measure or allow Trump’s federal restrictions to put a thumb on the scales in November’s midterm elections as a trade-off to get cash to the troops.

To correct every falsehood in this article would take more time than I have in a day, and the people who read Time would rather believe their fantasy anyway.

Well, they haven't changed their version of "journalism:

And that is just the excerpt! (t would have been easier and more efficient just to list the segments of the "article" not saturated with TDS...:)

I’m not mad at 3.99 gas in Eastern PA, down to winter prices.

I don’t use them for my subscription anymore, I go by a Pennsylvania news source. I know that Warner Brothers Discovery is pretty much bankrupt.

We don’t call them “Presstitutes” for nothing...they don’t really care who funds them as long as they get money.

There is a name for that kind of activity, and it is the second-oldest profession.

The best part about the article is that they admit that the young 18-year olds have terrible turnout to actually show up and vote.

Right, well being affiliated with a bankrupt, being acquired company should be reason for concern for a normal person.

Some voters may be disappointed, but none enough so they’d vote for an open borders foreign born Communist American hating professional college student.

This guy has a byline of Senior Correspondent. It’s almost comical. Time genuinely conceives this garbage propaganda as just the facts news reporting.

This rag is poking around for any signs of softness, which is their only chance. So 25% of younger conservatives are against: crime needs punishment, borders need enforcement, schools should teach, welfare should be temporary, families matter, merit matters, and taxpayers should not be looted by professional parasites?

I don’t believe it. But, if true, they deserve the country they’ll vote for.

My daughter is a conservative, she is 30 married 3 children, her husband is well educated, good job. No debt, no school debt, can’t afford to buy a home. This generation is angry and if Republicans don’t tap into this , they are fools. The reason housing is so expensive is permitting fees, urban growth boundaries, which has created a supply and demand issue. The government is the problem, however the “socialist democraps” are excellent at selling it’s the rich people’s fault, you can have everything for free.

To add on, how is housing going to be affected when you add so many people but only so much available housing?
