Millenials don’t run anything. The senate is still dominated by Boomers and the Reps are dominated by Boomers and Gen X. Boomers have been holding on to jobs so long that by time they die it will be Zoomers time to step up.
Steven Miller, JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Elise Stefanik, and Tulsi Gabbard all hold ranking positions in the federal bureaucracy. The average age of an ICE agent is 40, with plenty coming into the organization in their 20s. The average age of US military leadership is 44 (by design). The average age of US mayors is 50. The average CEO is 54, with newer executives tending to the high 40s. The average US voter’s age is 43.
Millenials run plenty.

And they’ve done nothing substantial to affect the Unitary Executive government. They’re perfectly happy to just sit on their hands while the younger and more aggressive leadership take the lead. They don’t control the money in a material sense, either. Lobbyists, DC staffers, and campaign bundlers all skew much younger. Dianne Feinstein was drooling into her oatmeal while her Chief of Staff James Sauls was making all her decisions.
Charlie Kirk was a mere 31 years young when he was abruptly unalived. He’d been slopping around a campaign war chest of $85M - more than most sitting governors - in an effort to influence elections through the American southwest.
Generational cohort analysis has no business here.
Applause
“Hey hey! Enough of this generation blaming!”
