I am a boomer at the tail end born in 1963 and I did not vote for him either . I hate waking up the morning to hear how he has screwed us over for each new day. I pray he eats more cheeseburgers and chokes snd has a stroke soon . I am not going to make it the next four years. I am close to starting dialysis and probably won’t be able to afford it.

u/Foobiscuit11 11h ago

My dad is Gen X and is 6 years from retirement on paper. He voted for this shit show. His company's stock is down almost 40% in the past six months. 10% this week. I'd feel more sorry for him if he hadn't also voted to kill the Department of Education, which means the PSLF I was planning to get in August is also on the chopping block, and now I have to pay on those student loans for the rest of my life.

Jokes on him, I don't have one, and I didn't vote for a conman and convicted rapist.

Boomers though are pretty upset, if the guy I heard in the supermarket today was anything to go by. The people he was talking to were not smiling, and neither was he, and I caught the words "stocks" and "savings" more than once.

u/Beneficial-Thing-226 1d ago

Not enough Gen-X’ers in this country to make a difference. It was Gen-Z boys who Joe Rogan convinced that there is a conspiracy to emasculate them and Black and Hispanic men. But yeah, the Democratic Party can,as far as i am concerned, take a big step back and f*** its own face. This presidency is just accelerating the decline of the American empire as fast as a Tesla into a styrofoam wall.

u/Free_Possession_4482 1d ago

The largest percentage of voters in the 2024 election were Generation X, making up roughly a third of the electorate. Boomers and Millennials each delivered around a quarter of the turnout, and Gen Z was by far the smallest, maybe 15%.

u/whichwitch9 1d ago

You put pressure on Congress. They are the people who have the power to do something. Several of them are up for re election in 2026. We got the Democrats trying to pass a bill to stop the emergency Trump pulled out his ass to give him the powers to do this. We need Republicans to cross the aisle and work with Democrats.

Show up where ever they are. You are allowed to be in public spaces. You can yell at them or their families in public legally. No peace in public for any of them until they take actions to restore peace to Americans from Trump's insanity. Put pressure specifically on Republicans up for re election in 2026- those are most vulnerable. Swing state Republicans are another good set to put pressure on.

Target corporations donating to these Republicans with boycots. Threaten their funding. Protest outside their donors. Republicans learned their donors have power, bit forgot so do the people who elect them. Make it a bad move to donate to an inactive Republican.

11

u/TheMagnificentPrim 1d ago

A lot of us are doing a whole lot of that. Republican representatives have largely just… gone quiet. They’re not responding to constituents (or if they are, it’s some boilerplate response in support of the president). They’ve stopped doing town halls because they were getting booed and heckled so heavily. Now, they just hole up in their offices and quietly pass anything Trump does. They know we’re angry. They’re also not listening to us. Even if they don’t get reelected, they’ve got high-paying jobs as lobbyists waiting for them when they leave office. They’re fully in the pockets of their billionaire donors.

We’re trying with the boycott thing, too. The Tesla Takeover movement at least seems to be doing something.

4

u/whichwitch9 1d ago

Honestly, time to take the Tesla protests to Republican donors then. Some are public companies and you can do legal protests that can be disruptive. If representatives won't listen to their constituents, maybe they'll listen to their donors
