(DailyEmailNews.com) – While expressing concerns about the Biden-Harris administration’s impact on issues like wages and housing, 22-year-old Gen Z voter Jahmiel Jackson revealed that Joe Biden had “crushed one of his biggest dreams.”
Speaking on Fox News, Jackson asserted the current administration’s policies are pushing young male voters toward GOP candidate Donald Trump for the upcoming November election.
A recent New York Times/Siena College poll revealed a strong preference for Trump over Biden and Kamala Harris among men aged 18 to 29.
During an interview on “The Story With Martha MacCallum,” Jackson, a Trump supporter himself, criticized Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan and discussed the economic challenges his peers are facing.
“My reaction is, well, first, when I think about that, I think of when President Biden was first in office when there was a honeymoon period until he tried to pull out of Afghanistan,” Jackson said.
“That’s when he crushed one of my biggest dreams, which was serving in the military right after I graduated college,” he explained.
He also mentioned the struggles of his peers in achieving their personal goals: “So then I look at a lot of the friends that I have who are males around my age. They want to have homes, they want to start families, they want to make a lot of money.”
“We all have these individual dreams, and then we start to see that it’s becoming less and less possible. I have guy friends who have finance degrees who are now baristas because they can’t find a job,” he lamented.
Jackson argued that the policies under Biden and Harris have badly affected many young male voters’ aspirations compared to the Trump era.
“So I think in the Biden administration, a lot of our dreams are being crushed or hindered,” he added.
“But when we see Trump, we saw everything that happened in 2019 when Kamala Harris even said that prices are cheaper, buying a home was cheaper, maintaining family order and safety was a lot [more] manageable. So I think that’s what men my age are relating to,” he stated.
Polls from the New York Times/Siena College also indicate that young male support for Trump has increased since Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee compared to when Biden was the nominee.
