The message: "You suck!"
Apparently, the kids are ready to throw away America not because they are a bunch of commies or anything like that, but because they are balking at voting for the senile dotard.

NEW: Democratic strategist James Carville has meltdown, blasts young people for thinking about staying home and not voting for Biden.

The panic is setting in.

Carville has always been a charmer, and he has only gotten more charming as he has aged. He's also better looking than in his younger years when he looked like a character out of Deliverance!
Carville is upset that younger people are not exactly warming up to Joe Biden, despite the fact that the United States of America is sliding into a theocracy in which children are not being read pornographic books by drag queens or having their genitals chopped off with abandon.
At least I think that is what he is upset about. I couldn't get past his sneering condescension long enough to listen too closely.
As is so often the case, Democrats believe that they own the votes of certain populations, and younger voters (people who don't yet have jobs or families and hence don't understand anything about how the world works) are one of the demographics to which they are entitled every vote.
Carville is directly responding to the bad news for Biden in Harvard's latest poll of young voters, which indicates that the president's popularity with young people is much lower in 2024 than it was in 2020.
Biden is still ahead by a decent margin but by not nearly as much as four years ago, when he had a 23-point lead.
If the presidential election were held today, President Biden would outperform former President Trump among both registered (50% Biden, 37% Trump) and likely young voters under 30 (56% Biden, 37% Trump). When there is no voter screen (i.e., all young adults 18-29), the race narrows to single digits, 45% for President Biden, 37% for former President Trump, with 16 percent undecided.
Among the 1,051 "likely voters" in our sample, we found significant differences in support levels based on gender, age, race/ethnicity, and education levels, among other subgroups. For example, among likely young voters:
- President Biden's lead among young men is six points; among young women his lead is 33 points;
- President Biden's lead among 18-24 year-olds is 14 points, and among 25-29 year-olds it is 26 points;
- President Biden's lead among white voters is 3 points; among non-white voters his lead is 43 points;
- President Biden's lead among college students is 23 points; he leads by 47 points among college graduates. The race is even among those not in college and without a four-year degree.
A drop from a 23% lead to an 8% lead is pretty dramatic.
As you can see, college education and sex are the big divides. College graduates--you know, those kids who have had 4 years of DEI, CRT, alphabet ideology, and communist studies--are all-in for Biden. Kids who didn't go to college are evenly divided.
These are pretty good numbers, except in context. The numbers are worse than in 2020 by a good bit, and younger voters who are suddenly obsessed with killing zionists are pretty unhappy with the president.
I'm pretty sure that Carville's pitch to the young folks will rally the troops back to Biden.
After all, who doesn't like being sneered at and called a "f**king little 26-year-old?"
