Would you consider the Millennial generation to be a completely lost cause in American politics?

Quite frankly, I find it utterly pathetic that just about all of the Millennials are between the ages of early 30s-early 40s and they still keep voting the same exact way they did when they were in their very late teens-early 20s (Voting blue no matter what, even if a lot of the very same blue politicians have financially screwed them over in the past).


Funny enough, the Millennials who are all for supporting Biden and having Americans go fight for Ukraine are the very same people who strongly opposed the wars in the Middle East and ripped on George W. Bush for it.

No. You have just bought into the stupid idea that people would change their political ideology and voting habits as they grow older. They dont. What happens is that usually the country becomes more and more progressive so that the ideas they had when growing up becomes more right wing by the time they get older. However, USA has not progressed as a country normally would which means that left wing ideas 20 years ago would still be considered left wing ideas today and therefore they vote the same party over and over.

This is actually an example of the Republican party inside USA having lost the plot and why they are doomed. They have forgotten that they need to appeal to new voters and expect voters to come to them instead and this is a perfect example of their entitled and stupid beliefs that people will somehow magically convert to become their supporters. That they are entitled to voters rather than them having to earn the votes.

Historically, Republican politicians has been smarter than this. They might have said one thing but they were self-aware enough that when it actually mattered they would change their own positions to be more representative of the people they were supposed to represent. You know, because that is what a politician should actually do. However, todays cadre of Republican politicians has grown up on the lies told to them as kids and has not realized that this is not how the world works and as such they are going to ruin the whole party if not the whole country.

If you think the Millennials are a "lost cause", then oh boy do I have some bad news for you about literally every generation that is going to follow.

Thats American politics. Or even politics in general. Just vote who you always voted for, actuall political agenda means nothing to the majority of voters.

Look at what happened to the one who wasn't: forced to flee the country and live out his days in exile.
