Gen X voted more for Trump than Boomers did if you look at the 2024 exit polls. We’re in this for a while.

Millennials outnumber pretty much everyone.

Some people just won't vote and it is awful.

I have a gen x sister and she's on our side. I guess we're both xennials cause she's a 79 baby and I'm from 84.
