No one had to vote for Trump because he tells them things to make them feel warm and fuzzy. You voted for Trump for a better life for yourself and your family. Hell most of the people I know these days come from immigrant families who came here because American life was better than that of home. Now a lot of the older generation want to move back to their home country.

Income disparity (inequality) actually fell for the first time in many decades under Trump admin. With low-income earners seeing much higher rates of wage/salary increase than the top 1%.
And the Leftists that complain about this issue still voted against him.
The problem is millennials have never tasted actual capitalism only corporatism. A lot left high school and college to the George Bush/Obama Fanny/Freddie Crash and couldn't get their beginning jobs as a lot of older folks had to take those jobs.
So a lot defaulted to socialism because if this benign corporatism is what they think capitalism is, then communism is better. If we had actually stuck to the exact wording of the Sherman Act where there would never be any monopolies then this shit would never happen.
I know this because I am a millennial.
Never forget -> send us to war -> crash market -> force us to pay for their healthcare -> blame us the ENTIRE time.
They won't even be getting the communism they were promised. It's a corporate oligarchy with a thin veneer of socialism.
All stick, no carrot.
It's because they've been demoralized (propagandized) and can't process factual information that goes against their world view. They'll only believe when the Jack Boot stomps on their heads personally, but never before.
Most Millennials are braindead idiots. It sucks having very few people in our generation to relate to
Yeah lets forget the election was rigged and bring back age based divide and conquer
I am Gen Z as well, you just have to remember we are children of the information era. Most our age can’t make it a day without their cellphone glued to their hand, and a lot succumb to the MSM and news feeds telling them what to hate and what to feel bad about, and how they are being oppressed. Shit is fucking sad. I will say that the recent months have red pilled many people I know that are my age. But they are still so unfamiliar with the way things have been heading in this country before trump. Most think that our leaders are too honest and normal to be satanic pedophiles. Too many fail to see the guise they all hide behind.
Am a millenial. Can confirm 95% of my fellows are complete losers. They lived a purposeless nihilistic life of weed alcohol drugs and binge eating before Trump came along and gave them an identity. Without him they’ll go back to being the same pathetic wastes they were before. It’s not all of them though, very few of them wisened up (I knew they would, you can only confuse a logical person for so long until they can’t take it anymore) and saw that associating with the aforementioned did nothing but imprint bad habits on their lives. Drugs, weight gain, avolition et al. One of them described it to me like crabs in a bushel. If someone tried to rise and increase their quality of life the others would pull them back down. You are dealing with people who cannot even fathom the possibility of recognizing and ameliorating their flaws and as a result embrace them en masse. They are a virus of character and will infect anyone to drag them down to their own miserable level, because more than anything else they HATE to see someone succeed.
"...and then vote for a candidate who promises to raise their taxes, cost of living, and tells them never owning anything is for their own good."
In fairness, China Joe is looking really strong on delivering for them.
Millennials aren't known for their intellect. Entitlement, selfishness and hyperemotion? Yes.
I think you mean we aren't known for our critical thinking skills. I have friends with Ph.Ds who couldn't figure out how to get water out of a boot.
We are the generation of tiktok and fucking fidget spinners. Embarrassing.
As a Millennial who is sick of dealing with the sheer incompetence of most other Millennials, GOOD.
I didn't mean ALL millennials, I just meant as a group. As a group, they are by far the least adept and show the least compasity to learn and don't understand that you have to teach yourself at all. The interns come in and run circles around them, and they are so clueless.
Also they expect to be spoonfed everything and have no ability to recognize when other people are smarter than them
Oh I get it, believe me. I've seen it first hand and it's always infuriating. If we get a nice new wave of tech savvy Gen Z kids, it'll be refreshing.
Just dont forget to ask Gen Z what pronoun they prefer or you'll be thrown to HR
I think we have hope with Gen Z they're not as brainwashed by the MSM
I'm in the dead center of GenX. I understood that you had to struggle, had to work, had to save, and that I wasn't likely to be the CEO of a major corporation. Many of the millennials I've worked with are pissed off that they aren't in charge after being on the job a couple of years.
Millenials are the most incompetent group I work with. Gen Z interns are surpassing them by miles and they have no idea what's about to happen to them career wise.
Yeah...Millennials are the new boomers.....
I feel sorry for employers in this country and even understand the outsourcing of jobs
Would rather hire a young person today or a foreigner?
Half of the millennials are so brainwashed, they think never owning a home and renting is the best way to go through life.
Do these people make any sense at all.
Fuck, maybe the worthless commies deserve what they want. We should set up a two-tier government where the uniparty rules over the commies and the other stays a constitutional republic. Wall off the commies and let them starve. (Mandatory participation for biden voters.)
Who are these millennials you speak of and why haven't you told them the truth?!
While they should be voting for their own self interests what's really driving them is envy, they don't want anyone else having it better than them. They don't want the opportunities to improve.
A lot of gen z-ers and millennials graduated college thinking they will automatically live at their parents’ income level.
