It certainly does.

    > How does voting behavior differ by age?
    > In 2024, 47.7% of citizens between the ages of 18 and 24 voted, compared to 60.2% of 25- to 44-year-olds, 70.0% of 45- to 64-year-olds, and 74.7% of people 65 and older.

Older voters have higher turnout and skew heavily Republican.

Older voters didn't vote for war with Iran. Some will go along with the president for tribal reasons and what's left of american patriotism.

Defining things generationally is unnecessarily divisive: the people who have been relentlessly pushing for war with iran have names and addresses and have been doing so for 30 years.

I don't think you can not address it "generationally" The people who voted are absolutely getting what they voted for. None of this was not predicted before and during the election. I remember reading years ago that Trump wanted his second term to do the wanton things he couldn't before (like bludgeoning countries with the military). It was all out there.

It's past time to stop blaming a few warhawks "over there" Voters did this. Voters need to fix it

[recursivedoubts]

Trump ran on ending the war in ukraine in "a week" and never said anything about war with iran during his campaign.

The voters didn't and don't do shit: elites pick the two candidates, pay them both a bunch of money, buy congress and push through what they want. If Kamala were elected we'd be at war with iran just the same.

Stop blaming normies who have no power for what PNAC, etc have been pushing for for decades with real money.
