re: Millennials deserve this

There’s more nuance to this than to say this is millennials fault.
First boomers are the leaders that have led the country to where we are currently at. Millennials didn’t vote for Bush, Clinton, or Bush again. The first set of millennials starting voting in 08, but only the 89 and 90 millennials. This didn’t happen over the last 5-10 years. It has progressively happened over the past 30 years. It’s a cop out to blame a generation that are all in there early 30’s or younger and have had no real leadership role in our country to date.
Disclosure I am a millennial. I’m a conservative.

I agree with Tiger0527. I too am a conservative millennial. We are the ones that have had to deal with the fallout from Boomers' policies. There is far more distrust of the government by younger people than you might realize. Now we might disagree on the solutions, but the pendulum will swing back eventually.

That's not right at all. The first Presidential election for Millennials to vote in was 2000.

Incorrect- Millennial's started voting as early as 98 depending on what year you would claim that generation began.
"Nielsen Media Research has defined millennials as adults between the ages of 22 and 38 years old in 2019. CNN reports that studies often use 1981–1996 to define millennials, but sometimes 1980–2000."
