Unless it’s 100% you’re still doing guilt by demographics. If thinking about that makes you uncomfortable, good! That’s a messed up thing to do. Do we have to do the whole ‘you can’t tell who someone is by looking at them’ song and dance again? The last half century is full of people eloquently writing and speaking about why that’s fucked.
My grandmother passed before the 2024 election, but she hated Trump. There are people younger than you all in on Trump. Generational divides that frame one generation as evil and another as morally pure are fake shit that keeps you from learning from elders who know how to show up and get shit done.
Oops, you only counted men as people? Women 65+ did not in fact ”overwhelmingly” vote for Trump, since you need at least 50% of the vote to do that.
55% of men is an interesting definition of “overwhelming” as well, especially considering women outnumber men aged 65+, and the difference only becomes more pronounced as people get older.
As long as 55% is the bar for ‘overwhelming’ Trump support that shows you should be numb to the death by starvation of anyone fitting that demographic, here are some that voted equally or more for Trump:
Men
White people
High school dropouts
People without a college degree
Protestants
Catholics
Let’s just shrug if they die of starvation, right? Since statistics both dictate morality and assign blame?
a) This article is predominantly about the food insecurity of people 65 and older, but I don’t expect you’ve read it. The data you’re presenting shows that demographic either stayed the same among men or went more blue among women and that women 65+ predominantly voted Harris. It’d be a 100/0 split in a sane world, but welcome to America.
b) Navigator Research is some dogshit no-name pollster that explicitly exists for activism. I don’t care what their numbers from 5000 voters are even if I assume seniors do more broadly lean Trump than Harris.
c) Both of those points are completely irrelevant to your ageist bullshit hoping seniors starve to death; collective punishment is disgusting to wish upon people, let alone when we’re talking a nearly 50/50 split.
Check and see if any therapists or reading tutors in your area are taking new clients. Just as long as you fuck off somewhere else.

Thankfully you would never commit the moral crime of getting old, right? Since we’re doing guilt by demographic?

Also, the voting trends of baby boomers are like 53R/47D, so it’s not like they’re massively in favor of conservative policies.

Dude we are talking a few percentage points here. Even if it were most of them, no one deserves to die like that. Get your head screwed on straight.
42 to 55 is in no way overwhelming.
