 Study: Twenty-five percent of millennials suffer from PTSD due to Trump’s election
College Fix Staff •October 22, 2018

Around the time of Donald Trump’s inauguration in January 2017, researchers studied students from Arizona State University and discovered that a quarter of them suffered from stress “on par with that of school shooting witnesses” after seven months’ time.

Published today in the Journal of American College Health, the study notes that 25% of 769 students reported “clinically significant” levels of stress after The Donald became president.

Sad to say too many boomers have raised their young to be a nation of weaklings.

Heck, I'd have been upset if Hillary won,  but I wouldn't be such a drama queen as to claim I suffered from the same malady as a soldier facing enemy fire.   

Crap "research" like this is fodder for a lazy media, and an insult to our Bravest.

Absolutely, and the generation after baby boomers - the ones with kids in high school and college now - are even worse. Helicopter parents create snowflake, useless, offspring.

I have read quite a bit about the college age generation. Blame goes to the students themselves, their parents, professors and administrators.

They have been coddled, and enabled, to bbelieve anything goes.


Apparently it is arare college president, that tells them to sit down and shut up.

College is mainly a scam, aside from technical STEM fields.

"If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge

As sad and proud  as that picture makes me...it also makes me sure that it wouldn't happen today.

When I think about WWII, the shortages, the rationing, blackouts, men enlisting .. yeah, I don't see it happening again.  People today refuse to be inconvenienced, even a little.

But enough about David Hogg.
