I had no idea Gen Z's nickname was Zoomers till reading a story about many Gen Z males being pro Trump.
This is just from my own experience as an older Boomer.. but Older Baby Boomers tend to be more liberal.. than younger Baby Boomers...
All of Gen X seems more conservative
My son is a mid generation millennial and he and his friends are very liberal.. younger millennials again more conservative.
So I wonder if Gen Z will have that same split with part of the generation tending more liberal as it ages out.
