I know about a half dozen younger people who voted for Trump, believing him to actually be the Senator Armstrong-type person the meme war made him out to be.
In my experience Boomers are basically all cemented in their position, for example the single most feral leftie I’ve ever met was an old ass biker boomer who apparently hung out with the black Panthers as a teen and basically wanted to murder ever president since Johnson. Meanwhile I’ve never met a rightwing boomer who could have their mind changed regardless of whatever logic chain you use, I’ve had more conductive arguments with neo-nazis since at least they try to argue rather than effectively just going nuh-uh.
Actually we were just talking about this further down. Somebody called me on my shit and it turns out +65 or older voted exactly the same as in 2020. From other age groups many switched sides to Maga except 18-30 who voted Maga instead of staying home like usual

No, you’re right. He landslided the 20-30 age range that year because he went on their shows and focused on them
If by landslided you mean not even close to a landslide and that he lost that demographic, yeah sure
I guess you’re right. We made such a hullabaloo about young podcast listeners leaning right I suppose that I lost the point.
The chart shows a lot of people from all ages who switched or just didn’t turn out
Edit: should have linked the source on this random chart I pulled out my ass https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2025/06/26/voting-patterns-in-the-2024-election/pp-2025-6-26_validated-voters_2-02/
Wow incredible chart there big guy! You’re so worldly.
Yah babe you can do mental math about it while we fuckkkkkk
To be fair, whoever plotted the X axis of the chart did their very best to make it as unintuitive as possible.
It looks like the only age group that didn’t increase support for Trump in 2024 compared to 2016 was 65+.
Am I reading that right?
You are correct. Which would make the only group who didn’t sell us out the literal actual boomers. Well, not more than usual anyway

You must mean social media grandpa.

You getting called out is a daily occurrence eh?
Yeah, buddy that’s life. Some of us are pretty adjusted to it. You’re taking it extra well though 😉
Oh no, are you losing the freakazoid shit because you’re tired? Why aren’t you writing some long-winded self report about how you hate women?
I’ll say literally anything to keep you replying to my posts. You’re doing smashing PR for me and I kind of like wearing you around like a cocksleeve.
You should be more timely though, you’re missing the initial rush of traffic every time
