    Gen X isn’t the problem here. It’s boomers. It’s always been boomers who were the problem.

      Oh now there old friend, I wasn’t making a generalization as to a whole ass generation. I am sure I could commiserate with you as to the fuckery boomers have shit down our backs since they traded in free love for free hate but I try real hard not to drag ass on a bitch after 5pm if you get my meaning.

      It’s the 1% vs the working class, not generation vs generation

        Then Trump will only have 1% of the vote then, I feel better.

          Unfortunately, far too many of the 99% see themselves as temporarily embarrassed 1%.

      you have to forgive them for forgetting about Gen X, it is sort of a theme

        In my experience GenX is almost as bad, they have a huge fucking chip on their shoulders instead of believing they are God’s chosen generation

          Depends. Older Gen X is basically like young Boomers. Younger Gen X are basically like older Millenials.

        there were far more Boomers than ever existed in Gen X, likewise for Millenials

      All that lead they consumed growing up. Distorted their brains and making them clinically insane.

      There’s a lot more of gen x than boomers. Maybe y’all should have been voting.

          Aight. Like 5 million off still.

          Regardless, more than 5 million still alive are in nursing homes and too ill to manage to vote. 11% of the 65 and over bunch have dementia. The majority of those people won’t vote.

            And your point is (somehow) still that no one from Gen-X votes… or something?

        It’s exactly the opposite–more boomers than Gen X. Also I’m Millenial so relax a bit.
