It is understandable that younger folks are rethinking their votes for TRUMPSTEIN. Prices for everything have skyrocketed. This directly affects all of us. Only a TRUMPSTEIN Cult Member is stupid enough to pay through the wazoo for everything, no matter what the price. I wonder at what point they might become aware that they can no longer afford their mortgage, rent, groceries, electricity, health insurance, gas, and everything else. I'm pondering at what point will they draw the line? When they pay $200 for a couple groceries? When they can't feed their families? How far can TRUMPSTEIN push them before they figure out the reality of things?🤔🤔

This younger generation knows that they’re being screwed and they’re not buying the excuses and the garbage you hear on the corporate news because all they know is they’re being screwed and they know who screwing them and when they start slamming drones into the mansions and corporate board rooms of their oppressors, things might change for the better of all humanity.

They will give the answer "Just wait a little longer and you'll see how prices come down" because that's what trumpstein has told them. And then they'll revert back to saying it's all Biden's fault. They have an answer for everything except what the real and TRUE FACTS are. He has them so brainwashed that they believe nothing but what comes out of their kings mouth.

Angus Young's avatar

Yup. Just like the pathetic people that loved (and still love and adore) Hitler. Everything is supposedly Biden's fault, Obama's fault, the Democrats fault Epsteins fault, Renee Nicole Goods fault.... Even Newsom's fault. It's Minnesota's fault, it's the homeless people's fault, it's anyone that came into our countries fault, it's the Native American Indians of our countries fault, Let's add ANY person that doesn't agree with TRUMPSTEIN - it's their fault to. It's Jasmine Crockett's fault, and it's Marjorie Taylor Greene's fault, it's Denmark's fault and Greenland's fault, it's Norway and Canada and Venezuela's fault - feel free to add to this list.

Exactly what do Gen Z and other younger groups see in Trump and the Repubs? No help on student loans, no help on healthcare.

Dems wake up, subsidies for video games, should do it.

Gallup issued a report showing that 40% of American women aged 15-44 would like to permanently move to another country if they had the chance. That is a fourfold increase from what the percentage was in 2014 when only 10% of women in that age group expressed a desire to emigrate. Women in that age group are twice as likely as men to want to leave the country. And the United States is the only country of the 38 surveyed by Gallup in which women’s desire to emigrate showed such a dramatic increase over that time period.

The survey reported that women who disapprove of our nation’s leadership (aka Trump and MAGA) are four times more likely than those who approve to want to become expatriates. The report specifically referenced the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision overturning Roe v Wade as a factor alienating young women.

A separate report from the Pew Research Center documents a sharp decline among 12th-grade girls who hope to be married. It appears that growing numbers of young women would rather be childless cat ladies than MAGA tradwives.

There was a religious group called Manichaeism and they saw the world for what it is, a piece of shit and their whole thing was, do not procreate and bring other people into this shit world. I can understand why a young woman would not want to bring kids into this most foul world full of so many rotten predatory people such as corporate types and filthy billionaires. Having kids isn’t not fair to the kids at least not bringing them into this piece of shit world full of piece of shit people who should be thrown in cages and use for medical experiments like the rats that they are.

Angus Young's avatar

Quite a few women, and even gentlemen (though not as many men) have told me that they are not having kids because they "don't want to bring a child into this world". It has shocked me. I don't have any children, but I get it.

The corporate mobsters have made the world a very inhospitable place for humans. It’s getting worse than a Islamic theocracy.

Doing away with the right to abortion is just step one. Next will be mandatory babies. But no healthcare as Republicans do not see the relationship.

Angus Young's avatar

I Don't blame them.

But it's really bad news for the Macho Man Sons of MAGA.

I just posted something about Gen Z on my Substack. This generation agrees with me when it comes to corporate criminals. They hate corporate CEOs and boards of directors with a passion so of course they’re going to hate Trump and his mob with a passion. But it gets better. Gen Z is ecstatic about the extermination of the united healthcare parasite by Luigi Mangione. They see him as a hero and I think that’s because Luigi Mangione is a hero. He slayed a person in an industry that is responsible for much death and suffering of Americans. They are sick of the greed and depravity of the filthy rich and they are not alone. The young Chinese are also fed up with their lives and they see their corporate communist government as an enemy as well. The young Chinese have a saying, Tang Ping which means let it rot. Americans have a different way of looking at things and I’m beginning to think that these young Americans are not thinking about letting it rot. If they have even a spark of patriotism and the quest for justice, they will not be letting it rot, they will be tearing it down. They will take a lesson from the Ukrainians when it comes out to deal with corporate tyranny. The ruling class in America is going to be in for a very rude awakening. These kids are seeing their grandparents and parents fucked over by a very corrupt and sinister group of people who are beyond any form of redemption. The corporate criminal ruling class is afraid of what’s coming. It won’t be old farts like me and other media horrors just bitch about it and write the same stupid articles again and again and again, I’m thinking this generation has already seen enough of the bullshit and they’re the ones that are gonna solve it and it ain’t going to be pretty for the elites. Don’t be surprised if in the next few years you start hearing about filthy rich people getting attacked with kamikaze drones and terrorized the way the ruling class in 1789 France was terrorized by the peasants.

Please David, talk about this, something that is ignored by the media. Trump betrayed the Iranian people and gave the Regime a chance to live. More importantly, he betrayed the Syrian Kurds who are allied with Arab Democrats for the sake of his favorite dictator Erdogan!

Angus Young's avatar

TRUMPSTEIN betrayed everyone but himself and his family. And I say "maybe" about his family - because he wants to screw his daughter.

Stella Kay's avatar

TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) Donald can't ever be trusted. Unfortunately, what he promised the Iranian people emboldened them which put so many at risk of arrest and death. Trump doesn't care, it was just a distraction he used until another distraction came along; and the cycle continues.

Fool me once, shame on... can't get fooled again.

Angus Young's avatar

But the TRUMPSTEIN Cult gets fooled over and over again. I bet they would drink the deadly grape Kool aid that was called Jim Jones Punch, if TRUMPSTEIN told them to.

Craig Macbeth's avatar

He would brand it Trump kool-aid first.

Angus Young's avatar

😆. Maybe TRUMPSTEIN will tell them to jump off a cliff.😉

Hound's avatar

Let’s hope he does and let’s hope they do what he tells them to do.

Teresa G's avatar

Hope he is the first to jump so that they can follow him

Angus Young's avatar

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻♥️♥️♥️😂😉

Hound's avatar

I don’t think all of them are fooled even though they are fools. When they start running their dirty mouths they are saying stuff that they pretend to believe because they’re just so depraved like their parents.

Love me some Liberal Women 💙🤗

The only support left is toothless and ego-driven men, with their so-called women at their side. Just as narcissistic as their illustrious leader.

Angus Young's avatar

And by the way, many of their women are not from this country, and WHY isn't ICE shipping them out? And that whore Melania? I just don't like her, I apologize to anyone who gets angry with me for my reply..

Stella Kay's avatar

Hope this is a good lesson for these Trump voters. You can't let social media influencers (or yard signs) tell you how to vote and not do any research on your own.

Thanks for this encouraging update

Thank you, David for what to me is good news.

I’m trying desperately to CANCEL my subscription and I’m getting nothing but the run around. I don’t take kindly to being treated that way.

Turns out the manosphere bump was a sugar high, not a conversion.

Vibes got Trump in the door. Reality showed him out.

Gen Z didn’t “move left,” they woke up. Rent, wages, climate, bodies, futures.

Turns out governing hits different than podcasting.

Neural Foundry's avatar

Solid breakdown on this. The point about influencer-driven support being fundementally shallow really tracks with what I've seen talking to younger folks lately. One thing worth adding is that this kind of rapid political dealignment often creates not just Democratic leaners but a bunch of newly cynical non-voters who might stay home altogther in 2026.

That in fact would be a very bad thing considering the large trove of people who sat 2024 out….
