[00:30] this weekend I had the opportunity to

[00:31] listen to the entirety of the Ezra Klein

[00:35] Show podcast Ezra Klein is a very smart

[00:38] honest liberal he's been incredibly

[00:41] critical of the Democrat Party since the

[00:43] election in November Ezra Klein

[00:46] previously created a thing called wonk

[00:48] blog at the Washington Post later he

[00:51] founded Vox alongside people like Matt

[00:55] eaus he perfectly represented the white

[00:59] male millennial

[01:00] era of the Obama era it was very smug it

[01:04] was overconfident in part because they

[01:07] thought that left-wing victory was

[01:10] completely inevitable if you listen to

[01:13] pod save America it is four of those

[01:14] guys that just talk about how right they

[01:16] are the entire

[01:17] time after the 2008 election and the

[01:21] subsequent 2012 election of Barack Obama

[01:24] people like Ezra Klein looked at the

[01:26] numbers and said old people are

[01:28] conservative Young people are liberal so

[01:31] the future will be liberal that is a

[01:34] very fair and honest

[01:37] analysis there's one thing they did not

[01:39] count on they did not count on the

[01:41] grittiness and the hustle of Turning

[01:44] Point USA they did not count on the

[01:46] millions of students that actually

[01:47] wanted to have a future and the

[01:49] ascendent political force of President

[01:52] Donald Trump now Ezra Klein who is the

[01:55] premier explainer of things on the left

[01:58] is stuck trying to explain why that

[02:01] didn't

[02:02] happen so we had a Democrat statistician

[02:06] by the name of David sha on his

[02:08] program the reason we are leading with

[02:11] this today everybody is that there is a

[02:13] generational restructuring happening

[02:16] it's so obvious to us on this program

[02:18] we've been warning about this for the

[02:20] last couple years not just warning about

[02:21] it celebrating it I've been coming in

[02:23] the chair here on this program in real

[02:25] America's voice and on the Salem Radio

[02:26] Network telling you guys there's

[02:28] something happening on these campuses

[02:30] there's something happening with the

[02:31] Next Generation the crowds were drawing

[02:34] the views that we are garnering and

[02:36] reporters would scoff at it oh come on

[02:38] what are you saying you're going to win

[02:40] young people and Democrats took the Next

[02:43] Generation so for granted and what is

[02:46] remarkable is that it is

[02:48] sticking this is not just a trump

[02:50] phenomenon this is a widespread

[02:54] restructuring a widespread

[02:58] realignment by the way if you want to

[03:00] know why Democrats lost here's one of

[03:03] several actual explanations in 2020

[03:07] David sha was fired from the leftwing

[03:09] analytics company he worked at because

[03:11] he made a tweet saying that George Floyd

[03:13] riots might hurt Democrats politically

[03:16] the very same guy that we're about to

[03:18] watch now this is something that we've

[03:20] been saying on this program for quite

[03:22] some time we are ahead of the curve here

[03:23] we see the trajectory and we lead it we

[03:26] are the leading indicator here on this

[03:28] program and all you in this audience

[03:30] understand that we are not followers we

[03:33] are Pace Setters the tip of the spear

[03:36] understanding that the Zeitgeist will be

[03:39] made here on this program EZ reclining

[03:42] the New York Times They follow the lead

[03:45] of the Charlie Kirk show they follow the

[03:47] lead of war room they follow the lead of

[03:49] what we are doing with our Turning Point

[03:50] USA groups on campus and they're

[03:52] processing information saying what do

[03:54] you mean the New York Times doesn't set

[03:55] the trend anymore it doesn't the New

[03:57] York Times is reporting on months old

[04:01] data now the significance of this

[04:03] everybody is that you are dealing with a

[04:05] completely different political climate

[04:08] than any time that you have been alive

[04:10] since Ronald

[04:12] raake in

[04:14] fact if you take an average 20-some

[04:18] voter voter that is a young man and an

[04:20] average 75y old man and we've said this

[04:23] on this program and it drives some baby

[04:25] boomers a little bit nuts and of course

[04:27] this audience exempt from that

[04:30] the paradigm shift is so remarkable that

[04:32] the 20-year-old is more conservative

[04:34] than the 75-year-old let me say that

[04:36] again that the 20-year-old is more

[04:39] conservative than the

[04:41] 75-year-old don't believe me here is

[04:44] Ezra Klein and David Shaw who are

[04:47] pulling their hair

[04:49] out going through all of the numbers

[04:52] trying to

[04:54] process how on Earth is it that the

[04:58] young men the next

[05:02] generation are more conservative than

[05:04] their grandparents now let me just take

[05:06] a pause before I play this piece of tape

[05:09] if me mentioning that bothers

[05:12] you it should actually give you great

[05:15] hope if you're 75 and you find out that

[05:18] your colleagues that are boomers are

[05:20] more liberal than your grandkids it

[05:22] actually means that you're going to be

[05:24] handing off a country that is more

[05:27] conservative good job you guys did well

[05:29] a good

[05:31] Legacy yes your fellow boomers are

[05:33] trending left but your grandkids are

[05:36] taking a hard right turn there you could

[05:39] see the tens of thousands of students

[05:42] that attend our outdoor campus events

[05:45] tens of

[05:47] thousands we don't just react to culture

[05:50] you are part of a movement that is

[05:52] shaping it creating it and pushing it

[05:54] forward and it was

[05:57] delicious this weekend listening

[06:00] to smug man Ezra Klein have to explain

[06:04] to the millions of New York Times Elite

[06:07] academics what we have helped make

[06:11] happen play Cut

[06:13] 75 one of the things you can see here is

[06:15] if you just look at 18-year-olds

[06:17] 18-year-old women of color are the only

[06:19] of the four that actually uh you know

[06:21] voted that Harris won Trump narrowly won

[06:25] you know non-white men so I I do find

[06:28] this part of this chart

[06:30] shocking it I sometimes talk about

[06:32] narrative violations and I think if we

[06:33] knew anything about Donald Trump eight

[06:35] years ago it's that young people did not

[06:38] like him but if you look at this chart

[06:39] among white men who were 75 years old

[06:44] supported kamla Harris at a

[06:47] significantly higher rate than white men

[06:50] who are 20 years old that's exactly

[06:51] right that that's a real shift it is a

[06:55] real shift this is the thing I am the

[06:57] most shocked by I think in the last four

[06:59] years is that young people have gone

[07:01] from being the most Progressive uh

[07:04] generation since the Baby Boomers uh and

[07:06] maybe in some ways more so to becoming

[07:09] potentially the most

[07:11] conservative the most

[07:13] conservative I have no idea who would

[07:15] have made that a stated goal you're

[07:17] telling me for the first time you see

[07:19] what you're witnessing there is a PhD

[07:22] leftwing struggle session as they're

[07:24] trying to go through the data and

[07:24] they're being honest in front of the

[07:26] audience and they're one of the few

[07:28] people on the left that actually goes in

[07:29] into the data and let me repeat again

[07:31] that an average 20-year-old white man is

[07:34] far more conservative than their

[07:36] 75-year-old grandparent and it makes all

[07:39] the sense in the world number one look

[07:41] at the information that they're

[07:42] consuming the average 20-year-old is

[07:44] watching the Charlie Kirk show they're

[07:45] listening to the Charlie Kirk Show

[07:47] podcast they're consuming Matt Walsh on

[07:50] Tik Tok they are watching the influencer

[07:53] army that we have helped

[07:55] assemble the 75-year-old Boomer man

[08:00] is more likely to watch cable news

[08:03] they're more likely to

[08:05] watch NBC and ABC young people aren't

[08:08] watching the news they're getting it in

[08:10] 10sec sound bites of which we are

[08:16] dominant for those skeptical of polls

[08:19] and sampling size David Shore's study

[08:22] which you just saw in that video is

[08:23] based on 26 million online responses

[08:27] collected over the course of 2024 and

[08:31] filtered to adjust to Oddities of modern

[08:37] polling this

[08:39] trend if it continues everybody is one

[08:42] of the greatest points of optimism that

[08:44] we see on the horizon and this is why we

[08:46] are doing more campus tours and report

[08:48] this is why we are starting more High

[08:50] School chapters and starting more

[08:51] College chapters this is the sleeper

[08:55] narrative underneath everything it

[08:57] undergirds the entire

[09:02] Society the Subterranean truth that we

[09:05] are living through right

[09:08] now is that there is a political

[09:11] earthquake that you have been praying

[09:13] for and it is sticking and it is only

[09:15] continuing it is not just a Donald Trump

[09:18] phenomenon it is a right-wing Revolution

[09:21] that is happening from the youth to the

[09:23] old from the bottom up from the students

[09:26] to the elders from the Genex

[09:29] the JZ to the

[09:33] Boomers and it's happening across all

[09:35] racial

[09:37] demographics and it stands to

[09:41] possibly put the Democrat Party in a

[09:44] minoritarian position for a generation
