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.
"Anyways people my age get their news from social media and podcasts."
I'm 76, and so do I. And let us not forget, not all social media and podcasts are on the political Right.
"Nobody my age watches cable news."
Really? At the large university where I was once employed, the student body consists overwhelmingly of CNN junkies.
I'm 76, and I cancelled my cable subscription altogether, several years ago.
The moral is: Don't overgeneralize.
As someone his age I think the majority is strong enough to make that statement. Even when you see a group of us in a room with TVs, most of us have our phones out instead. Nobody I work with under 40 watches cable news. They might watch pieces of it on YouTube but they don't sit down after work and turn on the TV like our parents did. We hop on our PC or just watch something entertaining and maybe scroll our phone sometime before bed to check for interesting headlines, or posts here in my case.
Exactly people get YouTube tv for football season but other than that nobody watches cable TV.
Yeah, you aint paying attention.
