The Boomers should be mortified. Their parents were the one who sacrificed their young adulthood to eliminate the Nazis 80 years ago. They're spitting on their parents' graves by supporting Trump.

The problem is, boomers are the most selfish generation. The other name for their generation is the Me Generation, because after the war, after the depression, their parents had done all the hard work, been through all the hard times, and started to get money and financial security and so they gave their children everything they wanted creating the absolute selfishness we see today. They don't care a lick about their parents sacrifices because they had everything they ever wanted and for them it's all about "me, me , me!"

Then the Boomers tried to give that moniker to both Gen X, and The Millennials. I'm glad they have short attention spans.

You're absolutely right on that one! Hadn't thought of it from that perspective, but hell yes.
