Also interesting is how docile generation z seems to be. Very few of them smoke, drink, stay out late, have sex, dress in ways that freak out adults, listen to music that freaks out adults, etc.

this article said they are the most conservative generation since WW2. I guess music wise they didn't come up with rock and roll, wild stuff like alternative rock, rap etc , being really dominant popular culture. popular culture is pretty dead .

When the pop culture is crap like kardashians , stupid celebrities ,wretched super hero movies it's probably better to focus on other things . They certainly have grown up with digital media more than tv and newspapers , my cousin is 16 and he tells me all the cool sites he reads and is really into starting his own business.

Hopefully they are smarter about college debt compared with Millennials and want to start families , we need them for social security to stay solvent

So what? What percentage of all black voters cast their votes for Obama? And what percentage of all women voters voted for Hillary Clinton? And where was the outrage over those elections.

We had terrible candidates to chose from the last three election cycles. Trump is still a better choice than Hillary or Bernie.

I think that they'd be more likely to start families if they weren't told that dating and sex are evil for the first 18 years of their life.

According to research z generation is the most sexually diversified in history, only 48 percent describe themselves as exclusively heterosexual, so forget it, they are would not raise the American birth rate.

It is impossible to raise the birth rate when 52 percent of the next generation describes itself as likely to be bisexual

Liberals need to stop obsessing over balkanization and start by nominating a more centrist candidate. Corrupt candidates like Hillary or loons like Elizabeth Warren won't get you to the W. H.

Liberals don't get that the reason people voted for Trump is they're tired of having all this progressive LGBTQ crap shoved down their throats by hollywood and the media ad nauseum every day.. tired of being told they can't say this or that because it might offend someone. Ultimately their preaching is what backfired on them. Nobody wants to be told what to do, whether it's from some religious right nutjob preacher or some radical left athiest gender fluid nutcase. The left has let the radical wing of their party take over the media/hollywood and all the stunts they've been pulling since Trump won aren't going to win them any brownie points.

It's Scott Walker syndrome on a national level. Rather than act rational and try to work with the republicans they withdraw into a corner and whine like little kids. Walker never did anything over the top.. he cut some pension benefits and scaled back spending in order to balance Wisconsin's budget, and low and behold, now Foxconn wants to build a plant there. He has been a very good governor for that state and only a fool would fail to acknowledge that. If Trump wasn't so over the top and someone else like Ted Cruz had became president and democrats pulled the same crap (withdrawing and whining), I guarantee you their poll numbers would be even lower. Their only saving grace is Trump kind of acts like they do, which hurts the republicans. Democrats simply don't know how to play to win anymore.. they whine and whine instead and they have their base of psychologically unstable people that always vote for them no matter what just like the right does... the moderates and social libertarians and free thinker types are the only rational people in America after all.

The kids are alt right?

White kids maybe, but probably less so after this weekend.The trump victory proves balkanization and there are no good Democrat leaders on the horizon but hard to find any republican leaders for the future either. Maybe they demand a multi party system
