| #5 "Younger people being recruited for top positions." I see the same thing. It's a good thing. Gen Z and the blacks MAGA picked up, they have no interest in voting for establishment republicans. We stole the draft with the Elon, Vivek, and Tulsi pickups. The future keeps looking better for us. |
