CNN: An unexpected generational realignment is scrambling the 2024 election

[RhodyPatriot]

It looks like even the FAKE NEWS is waking up to the fact that 2024 is not your Granddaddy's election.

The US is moving through a tumultuous phase of political transformation we haven't experienced since the 19th century days of yore with the Whigs and the Democratic-Republican party.

The article is low on details, but at least (for the first time in MSM that I am aware of) acknowledges cold hard reality.

Bonus round:

Check out this editorial from the Ivory Tower egghead fostering NY Times!!

What Have We Liberals Done to the West Coast?

As Democrats make their case to voters around the country this fall, one challenge is that some of the bluest

A political earthquake is coming, and now even CNN/NY Times got the memo.

Expect big things, and enjoy this special moment in political history that is rapidly approaching.

But most of all:

Get off your ass and VOTE.

They need to 'splain away their total failure somehow, so the excuse machine is ramping up already.

Be prepared for the "we just didn't get our message out" gambit.

San Diego was a decent place under gop rule.....The dems took it a few years back and it's a out of control shitshow there now.....I'm glad my daughter moved back to Virginia when she did.

Only Trump (a non-career brain-dead Political hack) can think outside the GOVT “BOX” enough to begin to fix the mess the Deep State has created.

He did not do enough in the first term about the GOVT as he focused on jobs, economics…setting the Country on a solid path. Now? Its time to take a chain-saw out!

I mean its six months out and nobody is riding in on a White Horse from Kansas to volunteer to save the Country. Its Trump or complete destruction. We are 75% gone now. Changing of Law to hold power forever almost completed going into this round.

There must be a theme today.

Mainstream garbage source Politico is also (unintentionally?) highlighting the generational shift underway:

Jesus, the hits keep on comin':

When it comes to Biden, according to NBC News, young voices across the political landscape are expressing a range of grievances, from disgust to distrust, driven by a sense of disconnection from the current administration. The initial excitement they initially felt for Biden has faded under the harsh light of reality, leaving young voters feeling dismayed, deflated and dejected.

Biden’s rival, on the other hand, is doing well with younger voters. Polls indicate that Donald Trump is gaining significant traction among young Americans.

Trump’s unconventional and provocative style resonates with a segment of the youth drawn to his outsider status and his willingness to challenge the establishment.

Why Hollywood Can't Save Joe Biden This Time

Reality can be the cruelest of mistresses. This fact, one assumes, is not lost on Joe Biden. Last month, the president's public approval reached its lowest point in nearly two years. Biden's approval rating among young Americans is particularly low. His administration’s inability to connect with...

The leftist dems have a senile old asshole as POTUS and a VP DEI hire who always seems to laugh everything off.

Small wonder young people can't relate to them.

But the old rules don’t seem to apply in this year’s presidential election, where both candidates are old men and their fitness to serve is a top issue. Older voters are gravitating to Biden, and younger voters are taking a look at Trump.

Both are old men quickly heading downhill.

Wow, you've sure changed your tune.

It's because you're losing.

Saw Trump at both the Black Church in Detroit, and at Turning Point yesterday.

Dude could easily pass for 60.

You're fucked.

Trump would be passing the torch now (with an improved Country & GOVT compared to this destruction we live) if not for un-prosecuted 2020 Election Fraud. Suck on that mush-mouthed Pantyliners.

Stop your mindless ignorant rambling.

We're in a race to the bottom. That's what the partisans are blinded on.

That's your perception, now that you finally realize you're losing.

But in reality, the country will be much better off a year from now.

It's going to be OK bro.

And that's all you need to know about the economy.

The long, complicated explanations including the many embedded insults to your intelligence for not understanding that the economy is brilliant and good, are not messaging well with people who find themselves having to take the calculator to the grocery store.
