      Biden's collapse with young voters is kind of mysterious. I've heard a lot of theories, but I'm not sure any one of them is all that convincing.

      A political party that's more of gerontocracy than late period USSR is not going to be good at responding to what young people want.

          People under 44 were the only group to give Biden a majority in 2020. In other words, if the young stay at home, Dems lose by a landslide. The fact people like you are dismissive of the young makes it much more likely they'll stay home.pic.twitter.com/S748R0rcv4

          Ok but the party is made up of individual members who were each elected, so maybe if more young people ran, and voted?

          If under 30 voted at the rates of the 55-70 year olds they would get a lot more of what they want. There's no point in catering to a demographic you know is unlikely to show up at the expense of voters who do
