Republicans made major gains with young voters in 2024. Two years later, the political landscape looks dramatically different. Following a bruising midterm election defeat, the GOP faces a critical question: Why did so many young Americans turn away from Republicans, and what will it take to win them back?John Solomon welcomes New York Congresswoman Claudia Tenney to examine the fallout from the midterms, the changing leadership of House Republicans, and the defeat of an impeachment effort targeting Pete Hegseth. Tenney also discusses the future of the Republican Party, the emergence of new conservative voices, and the challenges facing American dairy farmers in trade disputes with Canada.Then, Michael Sugimoto and Brock Malcolm of The Young Right join the program to explain why Republicans are struggling to connect with Generation Z. From soaring housing costs and economic uncertainty to the war with Iran and the growing influence of social media, the two young conservative leaders argue that political messaging alone isn't enough. They believe the GOP must engage young Americans through culture, community, and shared values—not just during election season, but every day.Finally, Father Frank Pavone of Priests for Life examines the role of faith in American politics following Democrats' midterm victories. He discusses the political engagement of Catholic and Christian voters, the rise of socialist ideas among younger generations, the pro-life movement, and why he believes renewed religious involvement could play a defining role in the elections ahead.Plus, as the nation continues recovering from a rare nationwide FAA ground stop, Solomon reflects on another reminder of the challenges facing America's aging infrastructure.With Republicans searching for a path forward, is the party facing a temporary electoral setback—or a deeper generational crisis that could reshape American politics for years to come?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
