Gen Z voter switches from Sanders to Trump: Difficult to support a party that promotes "tampons in boys' bathrooms"
Eann Tang, a student at the University of Illinois, stated that Democratic policies are merely a "blanket promise to gain votes."
Eann Tang, a 20-year-old college student, was initially a supporter of Bernie Sanders, but his views have shifted, and he intends to cast his vote for Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
Tang stated on "Fox & Friends" on Sunday that it is difficult to vote for a party that places tampons in boys' bathrooms.
"Young men like me are trending conservative because they're being put in women's sports and their parents are being targeted for not allowing their children to transition."
Lawrence Jones interviewed Tang, a University of Illinois student and Campus Reform correspondent, about his political shift and the concerns of his generation during a live segment on Planet Chronicle ahead of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
He stated that he is "outraged" by the present condition of the country, and "extremism" is the cause.
"Four years ago, I supported Bernie Sanders and identified as a socialist," he stated.
As I delved deeper into the study of the policies being discussed, I realized that they were merely a promise to win votes. Socialist policies have a history of causing destruction in countries, ruining families, and leaving everything in chaos. I sincerely hope that these policies never gain traction in the United States of America.
For Tang, seeing America's decline, culturally and economically, is "heartbreaking."
"We, as Gen Z voters, are not only concerned about the economy but also about the cultural shift and radicalization that has been taking place."
In the lead-up to the 2024 election, both the Trump and Harris campaigns are targeting young voters through social media in an attempt to secure their support, as their vote has become increasingly crucial.
This November, eight million Zoomers will have "aged into the electorate," meaning they will be eligible to vote, according to research organization CIRCLE.
