Democrats Close Campaign with Pornby Megan Basham11 . 4 . 24First ThingsIn the final days of the 2024 election, the Democrats have at last hit on a pitch they believe will make inroads with young men: Vote for us, the party of porn. When ads tying Dems to smut first rolled out on October 7, they still seemed like a niche play by the party’s fringe. A coalition of porn actors with names like Ana Foxxx, Liv Revamped, and Sinn Sage pooled a measly $100,000 for a campaign billed as “Hands Off My Porn,” to run on porn sites in swing states. The ads claim that because Project 2025, a book of policy recommendations spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation, argues that porn is a societal scourge that should be outlawed, a second Trump administration would surely ban it. Never mind that Trump has never thrown his considerable political weight behind even those porn limitations that Americans overwhelmingly support, like online age verification. Never mind that his campaign has expressly disavowed Project 2025. The ads insist that the man who once frequented the Playboy mansion and makes jokes about Arnold Palmer’s anatomy would discover his inner Puritan once back in the White House. But it soon became apparent that the porn star gambit was not simply a Hail Mary from the margins. Rather, it is part of the Democrats’ comprehensive effort to grasp at the loyalties of young men who are leaving the party in droves. Ironically, as much more respectable groups with much more money to burn got in on the porn pitch, the ads themselves became obscene. ...Young men are more socially conservative than their older brothers, fathers, and grandfathers because they have seen the wages of licentiousness disguised as freedom, and it has left them in despair. They are lonelier and more disillusioned than any generation before them and they are looking for reasons to hope for better things from the future than isolated orgasms in a haze of marijuana smoke. ...
