DALLAS — Support for President Trump is dropping among millennials and Gen Zers — particularly young men. Vice President Vance is in charge of getting them back in the midterms. Why it matters: The 42-year-old Vance, the first millennial VP, capped off the GOP's two-day convention here with a direct appeal to families with young children that emphasized the "birthright" of U.S. citizens. - Vance also sought to cast Democrats as anti-American, anti-family "crazies." - "America belongs to those who love it.

Your “childhood” shouldn’t be extended even further
It’s not really Generation Z’s fault that they’re the softest generation in all of human history. Many of them spent their whole life in front of computers with their parents hovering in the background, being told that they needed to be shielded from opinions they don’t like and that they’re victims because they have to deal with normal human struggles.
