“I think a big reason why is Trump appeals to people who grew up in the 1980s and the 1990s. ... We grew up in an America that was awesome and an America that was filled with belief that we were the greatest country in the history of the world,” he adds.
“A lot of Democrats frankly don't believe that anymore, and I think much of Generation X, myself included, fundamentally rejects this idea that somehow as America is a fundamentally awful, racist country, and we like the idea Trump is selling, which is American exceptionalism is a good thing. We are the freest and fairest country in the history of the world,” he explains. “I think Gen X is one of the biggest and foremost defenders of that idea.”
