Now, the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign is nodding to her summer job to highlight her upbringing and a platform to boost American workers that stands in stark contrast to her Republican rival Donald Trump, who “has no plan to help the middle class — just more tax cuts for billionaires,” according to a recent ad.
Oh, that’s probably why conservatives fear her. Not the legal background.
She doesn’t just relate to millennials and younger, she’s suffered like millennials and younger
She’s gen-x
Gen-x got fucked over big time in a way we millenials didn’t, but only because the expectation for them was so much higher. They got almost the same raw deal we did without the previous generation to buffer them.
They shouted and raised the alarm bells about what was being done to millenials and younger.
Lots of gen x slipped right in with the boomers and have their life, but many many more are out here struggling with us millennials except they didn’t grow up in a world where it was apparent it was slipping from them.
Gen-xers are gonna be huge for us honestly.
My parents and my girlfriend’s parents were both gen x. Mine bought a house in the 90s and lived the middle class dream. Nothing fancy but regular camping trips and occasional vacations. Girlfriend’s got destroyed by the 08 crash and grew up in borderline poverty. We are in vastly different places financially and it’s pretty fucked.
She jokes that I tell my parents “mummy look, I’ve adopted a poor” in an English accent.
The worst part is my mom recently told me to invest in real estate because it only goes up. I’m like “yeah because old fucks like you hoard it and reduce the supply so nobody my age can afford one.” Love them but damn they’re boomer brained sometimes.
Younger gen-x here. You nailed it.
She’s actually born one year before gen x, so god willing the next president will be a millenial and we’ll totally skip over ever having a gen x president
The cut off dates are fuzzy. More like guidelines than actual rules.
