White House faces disaster with young voters

President Biden is facing a disaster with young voters, increasing fears among Democrats that they are in danger of losing a generation if he doesn’t improve his standing with Generation Z.
Biden’s approval rating has declined across the board among Democrats, but the figures with people under 30 years old is cratering.
A New York Times/Siena College poll this week found 94 percent of Democratic primary voters ages 18-29 saying the party should nominate someone other than Biden in 2024.
Biden, 79, has never been the candidate for younger Democrats, though they did rally to help him win the White House in 2020 as the president endorsed key progressive policy initiatives to address climate change and other issues.
Now the polls suggest they could abandon him altogether amid frustration with a lack of progress in Washington on everything from climate change to abortion rights.
“A lot of the young people that I’m talking to in particular right now are asking what the point is of having a Democratic trifecta if our rights are still being ripped away,” said Ellen Sciales, communications director at the youth climate activist group the Sunrise Movement.
“Like, what’s the point of voting? And obviously we’re pushing people to vote but it’s going to make it so much harder for us to do our jobs,” she said. LINK

That only means that the young people want someone even more leftist than Biden. It doesn't speak highly of our education system.

From what I am getting is young voters don't like him because he has not gone left enough.
Not a good sign for our country.

bullshite! Maybe 10-20% of those kids are worried about abortion and/or climate change. Half of them don’t vote. These two women are in a bubble and are writing shite just to write it.

It's obvious - haven't you been watching CNN?
The right to an abortion on demand.
The right to a world where the temperature is "just right"
The right to free college.
The right to free healthcare.
The right to not work if they don't want to.
The right to not be offended by other people's free speech.
The right to taxpayer paid transition surgery and to be any race/age/species they want to be.
The right to cancel people who are not woke.
I'm sure I missed some.

I’d suggest the strong majority of young DNC voters are actually open socialists at this point.

Sure about that? It's operating exactly as it was intended.

Young people have been farther left for decades and they usually swing more to the right with age.

I think it speaks to the total clusterfrick that is potential Dem candidates than anything else.
They tend to come in a few flavors right now.
1. Moldy holdovers from older times like Biden, Hillary, etc
2. Hard leftists like Bernie
3. Ethnic pandering to groups like Buttplug, Spartacus, Beto, etc
The Dem wipeouts in 1994 and 2008 destroyed a lot of their bench in red and purple states, so they have a lot of people who are well past their sell by date or people who have little way to win a campaign out of a hard blue area to choose from.

They don't care about young voters. They prefer illegal votes over any voting class.
The Dem filth does not care who likes or supports what, they will manufacture the necessary votes in whatever race they deem important enough to win.

Yep. My dad is retired but works in a goodwill. He works with plenty of then Z generation, he tells me that they are lost and have no clue involving politics. One has has never driven a car or ridden a bicycle. Some are homeless.
