well.... for one.... I'm young and will be voting republican. I think many my age will too. People are starting to realize the BS the media throws at us, and are completely fed up with the childish acts of the left.
“It’s difficult to see how the GOP will gain ground among younger adults as this newest cohort continues its demographic and cultural drift away from the average GOP voter,” says Daniel Cox, research director of the nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute, which recently conducted one of the most extensive surveys of attitudes among post-millennials in partnership with MTV. “The cultural disconnect is only going to grow. The average GOP voter is a middle-aged white Christian. That’s simply not what the US is going to look like in the future.”

I don't think many(most?) young people ever considered themselves Republican - although some may sympathize.
In my area it might be one out of 10. In my former hometown (in the South) it might be 1 in 3.
Wait till the post-millennials have to pay back those student loans they incurred while studying how to hate white men. They’ll become elephants quicker than you can say Pocahontas Warren.
