He's been around long enough such that young men have only ever known a world where Trump is the Republican nominee. Their world view is one where Trump is the normal.

Traditional conservative politicians are boring old men in suits. When they talk they put full grown adults to sleep. That was never appealing to young men barely able to sit still with raging hormones.
