He even seemed to blame the actual victims when he garbled: "To see people treated like they did, horses barely running them over and people being strapped. ... read more

Generation Z Is Politically Homeless—and up for Grabs*Samuel J. Abrams* *Politics, United States* 47 percent of Gen Zers maintain that there is no party which represents their views reasonably well. While some Americans are still reeling from the results of the 2020 election, elected officials and potential candidates are already thinking about the upcoming midterm election. With many close races expected next fall, the parties should pay careful attention to American’s youngest voters: Gen Z Americans who are aged between 18 and 24 and will be a significant proportion of the electorate in 2022.
