Generation X is generally thought of as the generation born between 1965 and 1980, so it’s not an exact match — the graphic above describes those between 1960 and 1979, and I have a difficult time seeing how someone who was well into their thirties when Nevermind and The Chronic came out can reasonably be considered “Gen-X” — but the basic gist of it holds: Gen-Xers, on the whole, voted for Trump. This flies in the face of what I have always thought about my generation, so I wonder if it’s worthwhile this morning to try to unpack exactly what this means.
