Something tells me this is bull shite. That or the only people to respond were leftist pieces of shite. All people I know over 70 love Trump.

I was just about to say this
Old people watch a LOT of TV news.
My Grandma hates Trump but can't tell you why, all she watches is MSM (CNN, MSNBC, Ect) but she hates n*****rs too and will tell you that
There's an old guy in my office who is the same way. He doesn't believe twitter videos or posts by anybody that ISN'T the MSM.
He hates Trump but can't tell you why, he just laughs and says people are stupid for giving their money to a billionaire

I'd like to see those numbers broken down by demographic too. I bet old white women hate Trump 80-20
I've discussed politics with about 10 boomers at the gym over the last 2 years. All are over 70. All of them loved Trump. However, all of them were male. No old ladies there. Either they don't go to the gym or they just can't handle early morning workouts.

It's a weak spot for too many younger conservatives. They buy the victimhood bullshite Leftists sell them about how their generation has been hosed. It's weird - but just scroll through the thread, it's real.

The over 70 watch too much TV.

That’s true. We do watch a lot of tv, but, many are watching and hearing all the lies about Soc. Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. on the msm. I mainly watch sports, Netflix, Prime, Paramount+, and Gutfeld.
Many boomers are disabled and tv is their main entertainment.

A lot of Boomers over 70 are the left over Hippies influenced by the "Beat Generation". Boomers under 70 have more in common with Gen X.

[quote]I didn't read every page in this thread, but has anyone pointed out that it's also boomers that are the most supportive of Trump? [quote]
I just got home from my class reunion where we celebrated our 75-year birthdays, although our ages range from 73-76. Most of us have college degrees, one with doctorate, Others were a retired vet, retired postal carrier, college professor, accountant, state government retirees, business owners, and a few housewives. Of course, we grew up in a small conservative town in South, but what little political talk we had was in favor of Trump’s agenda, against all woke nonsense, and the woke msm. I keep reading where the white, conservative, rural Christian educated people dislike Trump. Not so in my class, many of whom left for the big cities but still have the conservative patriotic beliefs they were taught growing up. As a boomer, I do not like being put down this way beng blamed for this mess. Those who do it will be old someday. Don’t forget that.

More like the middle aged voters dislike trump most but it’s far from hate across any age group.

Beware the "Boomer" stigmatization.
We know there is going to be a $70-$80 trillion great wealth transfer as "Boomers" pass on. The question is who will be the recipient ... Uncle Sam or succeeding gens. The "OK Boomer" crap is a State play for that money.
Folks playing into the "OK Boomer crap" are either suffering terminal malignant penis envy, or are the infamous "patsies sitting at a poker table."

Just curious but did your class experience the enriching school environment that was the post segregated high school battleground circa early to mid-seventies?
Back when the whites drove to school in our pickup trucks and our shotguns on our gunracks in the school parking lot. Before we knew just how much the colored, black, African Americans brothers and sisters hated us white folk.
Some were traumatized by their experiences then. Others of us learned how to survive and eventually thrive with each other.
I wish some here on this board would stop this boomer blame crap. But, if they need to blame an entire generation for their perceived problems, then so be it.

If you would have asked anyone whose opinions should be respected more on here before this poll literally everyone here would have said boomers and that Gen Z is a bunch of freaks.
I’d put it at…
X at 40%
Millennials at 30%
Z at 20%
Boomers at 10%
It’s like a race. You watch and care more about the ones actually in the race and not the ones in the back just logging laps hoping to get to the finish line.
