That wouldn't be a realignment.

Considering Biden won the 18-29 age group by a more than 2 to 1 ratio in 2020, it certainly could be. When I talk about a "re-alignment", I'm mainly referring to a substantial number of demographic groups witnessing significantly larger shifts over the course of a single election than the historical norm would suggest. In this era of hyper-partisanship and extreme polarization, that means it doesn't take drastic, thirty-point net swings or whatnot in order for an election to be classified as a "re-alignment" according to this definition.

I can't get past "Turnout: 22.7% (+9.7)"

If S.B. 276 is signed into law as expected by Landry (R), Louisiana would become the first state in the country to include mifepristone and misoprostol in the same category as opioids, depressants and other drugs that can be highly addictive.

The bill includes the threat of incarceration and fines for an individual possessing the pills without a valid prescription or outside of professional practice. It exempts pregnant women from prosecution.

It seems that this bill was quite calculated.

Reddit is a Biden echo chamber since it's pretty much just jealous losers in dead-end IT/customer service jobs.

Aww, bless your heart.

The only "losers" are people who look down on those doing an honest day's work.

He was being way way too nice and generous to redditors
Redditors are usually 30+ landwhales berniebros that spend hours on r/politics updooting articles they don't even read and downdooting articles they don't like and reporting the person who posted it.

I go on reddit often but really only subs under 50-100k members (and mostly those in the 1-10k range) because once it hits that point the quality goes downhill quickly. Reddit can be great for some niche communities but the big subs are usually sad, unfunny places.

The reason that happen is because usually when a sub hit 50-100k members the original mods can't handle the influx and hire new mods which usually are the mods of like a hundred other subreddits and once they been hired they take control and ruin it
That a reason why the big subs are so awful they runned by the same people and also why reddit is so leftists the big mods there are leftists and since they in a power trip ban anybody expect leftists.

yeah, the only time the big reddit mods did anything good it didn't even last 2 days with the protest against the API changes

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe that young people suddenly love Republicans. A right-wing Gen Z is just a pathetic, embarrassing masturbatory fantasy for Republicans.

Of course it'd be hugely unprecedented for Trump to win this cohort outright in November, but at this point I'm pretty confident he'll make at least some gains with them.

That wouldn't be a realignment.

"Young voters who don't really know Donald Trump" are not voters, lmao. These people don't exist. 18-22 year-olds are absolutely not too young to remember what Trump was like in office, for God's sake. These types of pundits can't bring themselves to acknowledge or admit that Biden and the Democratic Party in general are failing to reach these voters.

They're undecided, so therefore they must've never heard of Trump. They've heard of him, they know him well, and many of them still don't care to vote for one reason or another. You can complain that it's because these voters are stupid (they are), but what's the Democrats' excuse? If the voters are stupid then you have to try and appeal to stupid people. Republicans mastered this towards the end of the 20th century. The Democrats need to quit complaining and figure out how to convince these morons to vote for them.

Both could’ve won in a landslide against Biden

I highly doubt that.

and then immediately lose their mandates to circumstance and their inability to distinguish themselves from the old guard.

Just like Biden himself! The same thing could've been said for him heading into the pandemic election of 2020. In fact, come to think of it now, that application would still hold true in an eerily similar fashion.

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe that young people suddenly love Republicans. There will be lower turnout compared to 2020 so we'll see how that affects the results, but a right-wing Gen Z is just a pathetic, embarrassing masturbatory fantasy for Republicans.

No one of who is running (or did run in the primaries) is capable of uniting the nation right now.

FTFY.

Well at a certain point even that'll end but it won't be this year.
