Poll: Young people strongly oppose Trump
The Hill ^ | 03/30/18 | John Bowden

Posted on 03/30/2018 8:46:44 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Most younger Americans oppose President Trump's agenda and majorities call him "racist," "dishonest," and "unfit" to be president, according to a poll released Friday by The Associated Press.

Just 33 percent of Americans between the ages of 15 and 34 approve of the president's performance in office, nine points lower than the average of all adults in the same poll this month.

In addition, more than six in ten younger Americans say Trump "is a racist" and is "generally dishonest," while 60 percent exactly say he is "mentally unfit" for the office of the president.

The poll also shows widespread support for progressive causes among this age bracket, including 60 percent who want the government to do more to fight climate change and 67 percent who want a health care system in which “the government provides health insurance to all Americans.”

Etc...

You can see who are politically lazy and rely on the MSM, popular culture and social media.

An Ass. Press “poll”. ROTFL. If you read into the poll you find that “most young people” are idiot snowflakes interested only in their “smart” phones and what type of genitals they want when they grow up.

Education has done it job. . . and no outcry from parents. Sad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That tells me that 2/3’s of them are idiots incapable of rational independent thought.

Well, if the Poles say so, must be true.

Those Polish people sure care alot about what other people think. Do you think those Pollocks have any sort of agenda, or ??

Young people don’t want jobs. They prefer sitting on the couch, eating Doritos that someone else paid for, smoking some spice and playing World of Warcraft while the government sends them checks.

Democrats learned this long ago. Sloth pays...for them that promise it.

Pollsters ask, “Do you hate racists?” Then conclude they hate Trump.

Actually they aren’t. I got 4 kids, 3 of them currently in school or just recently got out.

They aren’t stupid, in fact they are very good at spotting fake news and clickbait. THey learned the hard way growing up with a lying internet. They rarely take anything at face value anymore.

In Europe, the young people are surprisingly going to the right, as they value their National Heritage. Voters at 16 backfired on the Left as the young do not want their cultures destroyed.

If you ain’t a liberal at 20, you have no heart but probably have some brains - if you ain’t a conservative by 40 you have zero brains...youth are used to being taken care of and think that’s supposed to last for a lifetime instead of becoming responsible enough to take care of yourself and maybe be able to help others of your own free will with your own resources...
