Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.

In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.

Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.

    Biden is a self proclaimed Zionist that has been fully bribed by AIPAC for 50 years now. He and Obama had a blast doing war crimes in the middle easg

    An interesting comment from a few days ago adressing accusations of Trump being worse: https://lemmy.world/comment/6138170

    Biden saying he was going to withdraw is like Obama saying he was going to close Guantanamo Bay. Empty words.

    Trump did the action that’s all that matters. Biden and Obama and all your beloved democrats which can do no wrong sure as hell didn’t do it. You are only deluding yourself here.

    So no Biden is not less evil than Trump. In fact Biden is likely the larger of two evils. But voting for Trump is still voting for Genocide as Trump is just as apathic but just a lot dumber.

      My goodness, you just can’t help yourself, can you? I could only vote for Democrats because think they can do no wrong. You can’t comprehend any other explanation. I try to understand your view and have empathy.

      I understand how unfair the system is and how powerless you feel to change it. If the game is rigged, why play the game? Why try the work within the confines of liberal democracy when the deck is stacked against you? It feels like playing the game is doing what the powerful people want from you. Not playing seems to be the only way to win.

      You don’t understand that playing isn’t optional. The game can change rules, but it must be played. Voting is power, just like money or resources, except everyone has equal power and are only able to persuade others for more. Power is fundamentally required for all life to continue existing. If a lifeform cannot get the power it needs, it dies. If voting is taken away, you still need to get power elsewhere. That just leaves you with capitalism and violence, an area where the right has even more of an advantage. You’re a larper if you think violence is a good idea for the left.

      Apathy from the left is exactly what capitalists want, as they only need to persuade the right and center to win. Fascists want apathy even more, as they thrive in an environment of coercion. Not playing is an option you’re free to choose, but so is walking off a cliff.
