Go look at the midterms we just had, it was historic. The GOP was supposed to gain way more seats based on previous trends but Gen Z came out in droves and denied them that. There hasn't been a midterm like that in half a century. That's why the GOP are saying things like this, they're scared because in 2024 even more Gen Z will be eligible to vote.
Everyone make sure you do what you can to vote, it's crucial.
There will be voters in 2024 who were 14 when trump lost in 2020 and who were 10 when he first got elected. How do you think they will vote having grown up watching all that happen?
