Generation X

Speaking of the 1980’s, the generation that largely came of age in the 1980’s just saved
this country. Specifically, voters ages 50-64 delivered the entirety of Trump’s incredible
popular vote victory. ALL OF IT.

Every other age group either tied or produced a slight Harris win. But those of us in our
50’s and early 60’s voted in huge (yuge) numbers and put up a gigantic +13% triumph
for President Trump, sweeping him back into office as the 47th president.

I resemble that remark!   [62 yo]

I posted earlier that we in HI should vote for Trump for this very reason.  Electoral college wins are less "legit" in the eyes of the other side if the president-elect fails to get the national popular vote, too.

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
