Trump's capture of Gen Z voters has longterm political implications | Eastern NC Now
a permanent GOP majority?
Young voters have trended left throughout most of history. Sir Winston Churchill once wrote that "if you are not a socialist at 20 you have no heart; if you are not a conservative at 40, you have no brain." But that seems to be changing throughout the western world. Polls in Europe show the populist nationalist anti-immigration right as the most popular parties among young people. America started to see a trend in that direction with the last election.
Now as Trump's policies and persona resonate with Gen Z, he is attracting strong support there. Gen Z finds Trump refreshing and able to deliver the goods. The largest circulation British daily newspaper, the Daily Mail of London has an interesting analysis of this phenomenon:

The polling shows that the youth vote going to populist right parties in Eueope is connected to the issue of illegal immigration. I have nto seen that polled in the US, but it may be a factor in the movement of the youth vote to the right here as well.
