Donald Trump’s success with Gen Z men was one of the many surprises in 2024, but as the second administration has gone on, that support has plummeted. What would it take for Democrats to win the Zoomers? Political commentator Adam Mockler (@adammockler) weighs in on this episode of What Next with host Mary Harris. “Young people see with our eyes that [the Trump administration] is starting wars. And the Democratic Party needs to reclaim the messaging, the mantle of being the anti-war party. So, yes, we still need to fix a lot, but I think some candidates are really starting to understand how to message. I mean, people are going on more podcasts. Pete Buttigieg is going on Andrew Schultz or these comedian shows. Theo Vaughn is having on more Democrats. We’re starting to get there.” Watch the full conversation with Mockler now: https://youtu.be/oR87SfmB4_M?si=_2ckk2FBvQUDzO-w #genz #politics #trump #podcast
