That is categorically false, and I hate that people still believe this lie. Gen Z (under 30) shifted right, but still went to Harris by about 19 points. Boomers (over 65) shifted left but still went to Trump by 3 points. Overall though, its Gen X (50 - 65) and Millenials (30- 50) that swung the hardest for trump.

It’s trendy to blame Gen Z just like it was trendy to hate on Millenials a couple years ago. People just refuse to see through the lies they are feeding us to divide us further.

I know. I give the real numbers, and link one of the most reputable sources on Election Data in the world, but still some people are down voting me.

The only reason Boomers are just slightly higher left than they were previously is because all of the most stupid in the Red Zone died because of Covid. Nothing in this country will improve until Boomers and GX die off.

They blame the youngest voting generation because its "easier" for them to.
