White Millennials are pretty much done with Obama according to Gallup. His approval rating is as bad now among them as it is among older white Americans.
Rest of America seems pretty damn happy with the guy, majority approval across the board among all age groups.
Also, Americans see things getting better financially and have for some time now.
A majority of Americans say their standing of living is getting better and that’s been true since 2012. I find it weird that President Obama is having such a hard time among one particular group of people considering.
Oh wait.
Now, naturally the right is saying this proves all opposition to Obama is about Obama’s policies because obviously they hurt Millennials so that’s why there was a drop. That’s only feasible if you take into account only white Millennial voters and ignore literally everyone else in America, where among white voters Obama has been unpopular since 2009 and popular among non-white voters for the same period.
It just indicates a reversion to mean, in more than one sense.
