Dems in disarray.As he told the hosts, "You know, when I look back at this data, I was -- I think many of us were preconditioned to think all the divides are within the Democratic Party. In fact, I think the divides among the republican party are far more precarious right now, significant divides."
"When I looked by generation, when you compare Gen Z and Millennial -- a significant part of the Republican Party, all voters under 42 or so -- compare those with older voters we see, to start with, that 54 percent of younger Republicans don't consider themselves to be strong Republicans."
"Number one, only 28 percent are comfortable calling themselves straight conservatives," he continued. "There is just a less connection to the party and to the ideology, number one. I think when you boil it all down, you know, younger Republicans are trying to say to their parents and grandparents, let's focus not just on owning the libs, but let's focus on an economy that helps me live my best life. Let's focus on a community where I can feel safe walking into a student dormitory, auditorium or laboratory. Let's focus, as you said at the outset, on solutions for climate change rather than denying it."
"I think the early stage of this campaign, what they've been hearing, it is a turn-off," he stated.
The new generation gap: people concerned about their future, v. people concerned about their past.
