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."

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:
