GEN X, WE DID IT And by did IT, I mean we pushed Donald Trump over the finish line by a good margin. More than any generation Gen X voted in the wrecking ball, as we're prone to do. This is not surprising to me at all. We've always pushed back against scolding types who told us we can't do something and we voted accordingly
This great column by David Strom calls this the Gen X election and I think that's fair. We've lived long enough to know politicians lie all the time and we decided to go in a different direction with a liar who is at least so obvious in his tall tales as to be somewhat transparent. Odd I know but here we are.
