The demographics in this country are to to point that it's almost impossible for a Republican to win now.
A LOT of things are going to change over the next 20 years.
The only way Trump can win is if voter turnout is historically low for Hillary. I honestly think they might just be low enough to put Trump in the White house.
As a conservative, I accept that most of this country will be a liberal hell-hole resembling its worst parts in my old age. I know that once the silent generation is completely gone, it's over. I just wish we could win this one election and put those SCOTUS pics in there to prevent the complete and total madness that is coming our way for just a little bit longer. I can't even begin to imagine what this country will be like in 30-40 years.

In what way have you been silent? I hear this over and over, but all I hear is whining about media bias, crying over birth certificates, and constantly fabricated conspiracies. How are you silent? You cry and whine about everything.

Like high poverty?
High unemployment rates?
Low wages?
Low graduation rates and test scores?
High violent crime rates?
In other words, every state is eventually going to be just like Mississippi and South Carolina and Louisiana and Alabama, the heartland of conservatism?
Sorry, Charlie - not going to happen. Liberals aren't emulating the disastrous policies that created the red states messes.

I'm a Gen-X
But as far as you're question goes, old conservatives sit around and complain about how the world is going to hell in a hand-basket.
Your people burn their own neighborhoods down like ****ing animals, shut down businesses with protest, and kill cops. They do it even when they're in the dead wrong. Add to this the fact that the other half of your crowd will enable this behavior while turning this country into a PC nightmare at the top of their lungs with the help of a biased media that NEVER shuts up. Just look at the coverage of the Olympics. It has been more about politics than it's been about sports.
I would say old folks are pretty silent in comparison.

This post is beyond ignorant. Typical red state blue state nonsense.
Do you know why those states have those numbers? When you can answer that question, you will be on your way to understanding why pretty much everyone that has their **** together votes Republican in these areas. How about this, let's compare conservative states that don't have those problems like Wyoming Montana or Idaho to blue states.

My people?? You think I have people? We are all citizens. If the PC nightmares you dismiss consist of refusing to serve a segment of society while you operate a business, that was decided years ago. If your talking about saying racist and bigoted things, have at it. It's like the entire right wing doesn't understand your free speech doesn't mean free of the consequences of that speech. If you denigrate people, you should expect some blowback.
I'm also in the Gen X generation. You are going to have to accept that other people have rights. People with different ideas, religions, sexuality, and skin tones are just as valid a citizen as you. You feel like you're losing because you are desperately fighting progress. Your goal is to set the country back sixty years. It's not going to happen. You can cry and whine all day, but don't call yourselves quite. We've all spent years listening to your bawling. We've seen your little misspelled racist signs. We've witnessed you make up conspiracy after conspiracy to no avail, but we aren't the only ones. The youth has seen this too. That is why your prospects are so bleak. In a time that calls for greater inclusion, you are determined to make the tent smaller. You made that choice, but you're by no means silent when you see that little island eroding.
Trump will win.. the people will vote and get to the voting booth in droves..
As long as we have election monitors etc. He will win yes.
