You really don’t understand how US elections work, do you?

In 1980, Reagan received only 50.8% of the popular vote yet won in 44 states. en.wikipedia.org/…/1980_United_States_presidentia…

In 1984, he received 58.8% and won 49 states. en.wikipedia.org/…/1984_United_States_presidentia…

If you look at the demographics of both elections, voters under 45 (i.e. the boomers at the time, since Gen X was too young to vote in '80 and the oldest were just turning 19 in '84) were much less likely to vote for Reagan.

But go on about how boomers voted for him “as a rule” even though about 40-50% voted against him, you absolute tool.
