G. Elliott Morris: “About a third of the young people who voted for Trump do not approve of his presidency.”

1. I hope they take note also that Republicans aid and abet Trump at every opportunity.

Either through proactive support or spineless cowardice, Republicans everywhere are propping up Trump and Trumpism.

2. They have no future..............

unless they join ice, work the farms, no education, make babies, go fight somewhere, work on the concentration camps and prisons or know someone that maybe get you a decent job somewhere.

et al.........

And sports.

And being a lying, gaslighting no caring journalist.

13. but more or less irrefutable - going by the numbers ? -(nt)-

15. Is it? I mean is it your point the youth vote doesn't matter? Would you rather have Trump getting a larger number?

I’d love to go more in depth but I’m still tired from laughing at the Trump knee pad thread.

16. point is - the post you responded to was entirely accurate. Trump's support

among the 'young' has always been fairly small. I suppose you can argue other facets of that (if you really wish) ... But the point the poster made was - plainly factual and accurate.

4. That's nice . . .

Too bad they couldn't be bothered to pay attention about a year ago.

8. A bit late for it to matter.

He’s there and he’s not leaving anytime soon.

9. Why Ever FOR?!

Did they go Traitor in the 1st place.

[OrlandoDem2]

10. What the fuck did they expect?

Thank you for posting but what did these kids think was going to happen?

Did they erase their collective memories of 2016-2020 and that shitshow?

I swear to God our electorate is dumber than a box of rocks.

12. Interesting- At Turning Points USA

Young Republicans gave anti genocide speakers large applause.

Young people in both parties are anti war.

14. even when it comes to surrendering (someone else's) land to Putin .. ? -(nt)-

17. Voted for him not because they supported him, "It was about voting against the status quo. Now Trump is the status quo."

That stupid redefinition of "status quo" started in 2016 to bash Democrats as both sides corrupt, money in politics (beholden beholden beholden beholden we heard in strongly worded lie-insults) that Republicans picked up eventually and who knows what the hell it means now.
