Surprise! Actually, not really....Millennials continue to shift to the right

Tale as old as time: the older you get, the more conservative you become because you have actual life experience, have been mugged longer by the government for taxes, have a family, and acquire wealth. So much for the myth that the GOP would die off with the Boomers:

Let's see how badly the Democrats accelerate this trend in 2024.

I haven't found this true with my friends. I think this is "wishful hoping" on your part!

They can't offset the rate at which that the Boomers are dying off. When was the last time republicans won the popular vote in a presidential election? Good luck electing the rapist in 2024.

Wow, because anecdotal stories are so useful, as opposed to the objective stats used in the article that covered the entire cohort of Millennials.

Guess you must be a younger Millennial at the tailend who was taught common core math.

I think it's also because of the extreme left wing progressives. If Dems had remain more moderate, I don't think you would see a shift. And then of course, high taxes (in conjunction with hcol) is another factor.

Even so, it's not a seismic shift. Millennials are more educated than their parents and grand parents, and the more educated you are, the more you lean left.

Boomers are dying off and GenZ won't be voting for anything other than liberals and progressives for at least 20 years.

How much more moderate can the leader of the Dems be than Joe Biden? Sure, there is a progressive wing, what else is new? The idea that the democrats are off the deep end towards socialism or communism is just right wing BS.

They turned out for Biden. That's why the rapist lost in 2020.
