Millennials find themselves with huge student loan debts, face the highest real rents in American history, and encounter class-based rigid ceilings to advancement in bureaucratic organizations. They pay heavily for living in what looks increasingly like an aristocratic plutocracy, and the current majorities in the House, Senate, and most state legislatures in no way represent Millennial sensibilities or interests. Donald Trump is about as antithetical to Millennial sensibilities as any politician could be short of an out-and-out Nazi, Ku Kluxist, or Marxist-Leninist. Excellent electro0nioc gadgets are poor compensation for being competent but having little chance to get ahead.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
