Every Trump protest you see looks like an AARP convention.

Boomers with nothing better to do who are living off their beautiful retirement from the country they help destroy and no longer exist.

Are these just the hippies from the 60s who never grew up?

All liberals feel in love with the protests of the 60s. It makes them think they are important and making a difference.

Liberals of younger ages long for that experience so they try to find new victims.

Modern day Democrats need to ask themselves if they want these old Karen’s out there in the streets representing them. Cause it’s a horrible look just like the Democrats sitting down at the presidential address two weeks ago.

They are the ones that have been duped the most by the MSM for over 50 years. When they finally die off, the MSM propaganda won't be as successful, no one will be around to lap it up.

Because
1) They still watch and believe mainstream news
2) They have free time

Because when the Trump administration talks about correcting the SS rolls and cutting wasteful & fraudulent spending with SS & Medicare; all of those news stations they watch tell them Trump is going to cut/eliminate SS & Medicare.

It's probably damn good exercise for'em. Hell, I'm 77 years old, and all that hollering and sign toting would wear me out....plus you get to take a shot at some tight-assed college kids.

The outlaw mythos runs deep in the American psyche. Everyone wants to stand up to the man. But it's ironic that today's blue haired, smelly, army boot wearing weirdos are fighting for authoritarianism and the true subversives are fighting for personal liberty in golf casual with consistent standards of hygiene.

It is the lost generation of hippies, yippies and beatniks...they cannot die off soon enough...a living, breathing scourge. The total opposite of The Greatest Generation

IDK, but I've seen a LOT of protest videos in the last month and I'd put the numbers at 80% between 20-35 y.o.

How many protests do you see and how many "old people" do you see in each? What percentage of the groups are "old people"?

Your observation and conclusion skills may not be enough to start a thread.

If your intellectual dishonesty allows you to start a thread like this then you should be able to provide this answer.

I'll counter your contempt for the elderly with my own observation and conclusion from within the boomer community.

My qualifications? I'm 76. I've lived my entire life within said community. MOST of my teachings and teachers were from the G.G.

Observation: Not even one single individual that I have known has been to a "Trump protest" and that even includes J. Carville to the best of my knowledge. On the flip side 2 of my fellow H.S. graduates has had 2 visits from the FBI concerning their presence at what has come to be known as J6 making it official and in the records somewhere. (they have been to other Trump rallys also)

Therefore I challenge your charge against "old people". What you are seeing may well be drug abusing middle aged people.
