Milennials are a bigger age-wise voting bloc than Boomers?

..that Millennials are only a super important, massive voting bloc when they are supporting the candidate we want. When they are supporting someone else they are pony wanting, spoiled super liberal socialist snowflakes who can't be counted on to vote because they are too busy looking for safe spaces.*




* In case it wasn't obvious this last part is sarcasm, although my basic point still stands in that everyone tends to play up or down the importance of this voting block mostly as it suits the purposes of their individual candidate.

And they will try to prop up anyone who is trailing but has a committed base. The logic will go your candidate was cheated out of the nomination and you shouldn't vote for the nominee.

The russian bots are already active here doing just that.

Hey, it worked last time.
