As a boomer-adjacent 60-year-old, with an adult son living at home, it’s the economy, stupid.
But, more than that, the world has gone to shit. And, no, that’s not the boomer generation’s fault. It’s the fault of the billionaires and the ignorant people of all generations who have voted for conservatives over the past 50 years.
I maxed out my donation to Bernie and voted for him. In the 40 years I’ve been voting, I’ve never voted for a conservative, or Republican, neither federal, state nor local. I’ve always voted as far left as I can.
I just ask because I was phone banking for that primary and occasionally I ended up on the phone with a registered Republican for whatever reason. They were cordial and I was able to tell them why I thought Bernie was the best candidate among the Democratic nominees.
You know who was vile though? Registered democratic boomers were furious with me and called Bernie “too radical”.
So I don’t buy it when people try to deflect blame away from boomers for the state of American politics. Registered democratic boomers fight leftists harder than they fight MAGA. 🤷♂️

Who’d you vote for in the 2020 primaries?

Bernie pin:
Very good wording: “A conservative, or a Republican”
Damn, you got me. I totally blanked on that primary. Bernie 2.0! Not OP, sorry.
