I have followed both campaigns closely and always felt that RFK was a white hat. That being said I am probably younger than most of you. I am 30 and on that Gen Z millennial border. Though I consider my self a millennial cause I remember 9/11.
Anyways people my age get their news from social media and podcasts. Nobody my age watches cable news. RFK knew this and did most of his campaigning on social media and with podcasters. I listened to all his interviews with Joe Rogan, Theo Von, Tim Dillon, Patrick Bet-David, Lex Friedman, etc.
Young people listen to these podcasts and follow all these people on social media. Guys like Joe, Theo and Tim Dillon supported RFK. RFK has red pilled millions of young Americans about the FDA and how fucked up the food supply is.
My prediction is as things get worse, Democrats gets exposed, major events happen etc. Trump will be interviewed by more of these people and endorsed by them. Trump was already on Theo Von the other day. Again these people have huge followings from normal Gen z and millennials. Not idiotic white liberal women but normal young people. Even Joe who is hesitant will reach his precipice and will either endorse Trump or have him on the Podcast.
They will lose the young vote. I have seen it for myself friends from high school who were Dems have kids now and have changed views. My radical marxist cousin had a child and realized feminism was mostly bs.
By the time November comes childless white liberal women will be some of their only young supporters left. Take it to the bank.
Why doesn’t Trump do more pod casts?Clearly Jr. knows how important they are. I’m 50 and apparently have more in common with 30 year olds! Thanks for your post. In my liberal Los Angeles enclave, there are presently three huge Trump flags flying below American flags right beside my daughters middle school. We did not see that 4 years ago. Maybe things really are changing.
I think some podcasters are hesitant to have him on because of advertising etc.
Remember the podcast he was on back in 2021 and the interview was up for like an hour before YouTube deleted it. Some are probably still spooked by that.
