Rs need to find ways to be less radioactive towards under 30 voters (particularly females). You just can't lose this demo by 30+ points.


The CNN exit poll from Florida had DeSantis only losing the 18-29 voting block by 14 points (56-42). Basically he cut the deficit of the GOP with that group nationally in half in Florida. Considering how crazy the younger voters are, that's incredible. You don't need to win that block, and honestly, we never will, but the key is finding candidates who can reduce the margin of defeat.

But can they do that and keep the margins they have with older voters?

Great for them. They've earned their future of serfdom. They will own nothing and be happy.


And this is real for them. Not hyperbole

Student loan forgiveness is a joke. It’s minimal and won’t impact most if any at all. Add a terrible economy, no jobs, high debt, and massive inflation and they will be like the youth in spain

Need to change voting standards to require adulthood.

And adulthood needs to require that you are completely supporting yourself, living in a domicile where you are the sole financier, and are gainfully employed - or have filed income tax forms for the past 5 years, or are a member in good standing in the military.

Until then they should have parallel 'elections' where you get to choose things like "most likely to succeed" - "cutest boy" - "best dancer" - etc.

This will not change until we invest into our colleges and teach them history.


High schools are where it should begin in earnest. High school kids today know very little about our nation's history. Don't believe me? Ask any high school student a US history question. Gotta dumb it down a lot and make it simple, though. You'll still get that dumb look and shoulder shrug from them.

Notice how they never release the size of the 18-29 voting bloc. Is it 100,000 voters or 10 million?? Context matters and percentages aren't worth shite without context.

For decades, conservatism dismissed this age group and now we're paying for it.
