A good argument was raised on NPR's On Point that Trump has nothing in his platform to appeal to millennials. It's all manufacturing jobs, coal jobs, bridges, roads; little interest and often antipathy for technology and the environment, things that young people care about.
And if you look at how he wants to spend, it's the same story. He's gonna increase military spending, decrease taxes on rich people, leave medicare and social security alone (or so he says), and cut spending on arts, education, and healthcare for young poors. There's impressively little in his agenda to offer to people under 30.
Kinda gives you hope that we're not completely boned in 2020.
