well you know history has a funny way of sorting people out Some generations build amazing things Some generations defend freedom and then some well they destroy everything their parents fought for So I wanted to talk today about the worst generation in American history the baby boomers And if you’re a boomer watching today on our show I’m not talking about you because you’re awake You’re a part of the solution not a part of the problem But let’s start with some comparisons here and some context The greatest generation came home from World War II after defeating fascism And what did they do next They built They built things They laid down roads They created jobs They invented the American suburbs They gave us the interstate highway system NASA the booming middle class They forged a real economy where a single income could actually buy a home raise a family put kids through school Imagine that In other words the greatest generation actually created the American dream And then the baby boomers showed up The liberal baby boomers mostly liberal or rhinos as well showed up and basically destroyed everything They inherited greatness and then they burned it all to the ground you know for stock options In their defense liberal universities did that to them on purpose Well and also yes I mean if Bill Clinton was a part of that process of putting America you know uh you know Teach for America in place and these activist teachers and so it was all part of a plan It was all part of a plan Um they inherited this greatness and then they burned it to the ground for some stock options some book deals some beachfront homes They didn’t just squander the American dream They sold it off to China sold it off to Vietnam sold it off to Mexico and more Want proof Just look at NAFTA for crying out loud Signed by boomer chief himself Bill Clinton in the 1990s They’re surrounded by Republicans You know you had you had George HW Bush there You had Al Gore there You had all you had a lot of different you it was the uni party the uni party of boomers They were all there signing that in 1990s It was sold to us of course as a pathway to prosperity in the United States of America In reality almost immediately after signing it America lost over a million manufacturing jobs from NAFTA Almost immediately Millions of jobs going south of the border to Mexico Ross Perau of course wasn’t a boomer He was born in 1930 during the Great Depression before NAFTA was signed Ross Perau warned all of us on the campaign trail when he was running against Bill Clinton and George HW Bush And he was winning By the way he warned he warned all of us that if we signed NAFTA that we’d hear a giant sucking sound going south Watch To those of you in the audience who are business people pretty simple If you’re paying 12 $13 $14 an hour for factory workers and you can move your factory south the border pay a dollar an hour for labor hire a young 25 that’s assume you’ve been in business for a long time You’ve got a mature workforce Pay a dollar an hour for your labor have no health care that’s the most expensive single element making a car have no environmental controls no pollution controls and no retirement And you don’t care about anything but making money There will be a J sucking sound going south Oh boy was he right They all laughed They all laughed at him They all made fun of him Dana Carvey made fun of him Sadly he dropped out of the race That was 1991 during the race for the White House Clinton signed NAFTA of course in 1992 after he became president of the United States And since 1997 we’ve lost over 90,000 factories in the United States That’s according to the Bureau of uh Labor Statistics in the United States and the US Census 90,000 factories closed entire towns completely gutted And as Steve Eisman pointed out yesterday the free trade baby boomers were dead wrong about NAFTA What’s going on here is you have to go back to the ‘9s when Clinton was pushing NAFTA and China entering the WTO And he basically made two arguments that free trade would improve GDP growth and would create a lot of jobs And he was right on the former and he was dead wrong on the latter And you know if you travel this country there are parts of this country that would have been devastated over the last 25 years because of free trade because they they they didn’t just lose their jobs they lost their towns Yeah This is what’s happening to the to America right now Okay America is being gutted America is being destroyed and it’s all by our own doing We better pay attention folks Like we better wake up and pay attention This is the primary concern for the United States of America right now The real dirty story is that the boomers got rich off of all of this Made a lot of money off of it They called it free trade but it was economic treason Even some boomers are starting to admit it Back in 2017 former Clinton aid Paul Begala unexpectedly wrote an essay highlighting the destruction of America at the hands of baby boomers It’s published in Esquire magazine Here was the cover story There’s his boy Bill Clinton right on the cover And then if you just scroll down a little bit here as we pan down the article The worst generation or how I learned to stop worrying and hate boomers by Paul Beala They acknowledged it The worst generation In it he confessed the truth The baby boomers are the most destructive generation in America He wrote "Wow." Beala didn’t mean it as an attack but he nailed it The boomers inherited a global superpower and left us with a broken nation Rising debt disillusioned youth I mean do you talk to like young people at all out there who you know maybe are in their 20s right now are trying to make it in their career Like do they they’re just they’re completely disillusioned You wonder why they voted for Trump in overwhelming numbers They’re sick of it And now these same boomer elites are whining on social media about how Trump is ruining their stock portfolios One of the most viral moments happened this week on X the past few days This sums it up perfectly Tim Wise writes "Hey for all you MAGA cultists who keep saying the market slump doesn’t matter because 20 and 30 year olds have plenty of time to make up losses Seriously what is your answer for people retiring now who thought they were good until your guy effed it up What’s your answer Tough shit." To which this younger person writes my favorite response of all time Yes my answer is tough Just like your generation’s answer to millennials and zoomers who were unable to get a job buy a home have a family or save for our own retirement was quote "Tough shit." This is your karmic reckoning Carefully curated from the moment you abandoned the unwritten obligation every generation always had to leave the world a better place for the next generation You stole our jobs You stole our houses You stole our pensions You stole our rents You stole our futures You made the world infinitely worse for us in every way All so you could have a boost in your portfolio and spend a historically unprecedented 20 years at the end of your entitled lives sitting on a beach in Florida You know why millennials and zoomers don’t care about what’s happening right now It’s not because we think we’ll make it up later It’s because we’ve already accepted we’ll never make it up This is a normal day for us This has been our reality our entire effing lives Welcome Enjoy Pull yourselves up by your bootstraps Skip the avocado toast and print off a few resumes Ouch So boomers sold out our jobs our wages our future to China and now they want sympathy because Trump put America before their investment portfolios And Trump loves the stock market Sorry no tears here but let’s talk some real numbers In the 1980s the national debt was 97 billion Imagine that Wrap your heads around that The national debt 97 billion in America Today it’s over 36 trillion They ran up credit card the credit card debt and handed us the bill The average student loan debt right now $37,000 for college in the United States And what does it get you By the way tuition is up 1,200% in the US since the 1980s Boomers paid out $1,000 a year for college education Did you guys know that college education for boomers $1,000 We get a 30-year debt sentence just to get a job that they already outsourced to Mexico in Vietnam And it doesn’t end there By the way in 1980 the median home price was $47,000 Today $431,000 in the US Somebody says "I’m out." This anti-boomer rhetoric This is not anti-boomers the generation This is anti-boomer leadership Yes It’s what they did while you were working your ass off and you didn’t know Yes So if you’re a boomer this is not to you And I said that at the beginning by the way So uh this is what they did behind your back And my generation now is saying we’re going to watch them for what they did to our parents and us as the children of boomers So that’s not for you Don’t don’t start crying about this This is not you Yes And unless you’re Bill Clinton then it is you Okay It’s the liberal boomers and rhino boomers by the way um who are part of the uni party that got us into this mess And it’s those who were born after World War II that tore down the greatest generation So in 1980 the median home price was $47,000 Today it’s over $431,000 How are young people supposed to be able to work a job buy a home at that price It’s nearly impossible How are they going to do it Um boomers bought homes with single income no college debt One spouse stayed home raised children Not anymore We’re drowning in inflation gig work and then we rent rent we can barely afford According to the New York Fed credit card debt in America just passed $1.13 trillion for the first time ever So not only can’t they afford it they’re swimming in mountains of debt right now These younger generations are not living lavishly they’re putting groceries on credit cards Meanwhile baby boomers own 53% of all the wealth in the United States That’s why there’s so much crying this week on national television by people like this Jim Kramer These boomers are the TV anchors They’re the TV guests that you see all the time They own all the wealth in this country So no wonder Jim Kramer is crying And millennials they own just 6% of the wealth Only 6% in the United States That’s why this shirt is going viral today Because millennials don’t give a about baby boomers losing money in their stock portfolios I survived the Trump recession from the 7th of April to the 9th of April 2025 And just when you thought they couldn’t mess up anything else boomers even destroyed our showers and told us to use paper straws They wanted to condescend and tell us all how to live our lives In 1992 under Bill Clinton boomer regulators passed federal regulation rules that restricted how much water could come out of your shower head And then President Biden doubled down on it Even Seinfeld mocked it at the time Watch Hey the super’s in my bathroom changing my shower head Have they changed your shower head No he’s doing mine next They’re low flow you know Low flow Well I don’t like the sound of that Jared Jared You too Yeah these showers are horrible That’s right Boomer tyranny rejected your own bathroom Um I mean reached your own bathroom The tyranny reached your own bathroom And President Trump yesterday signed an executive order getting rid of it by the way So lowflow nonsense weak pressure You need 10 minutes just to rinse shampoo out of your hair So President Trump ended that yesterday So the worst generation in American history the baby boomers destroyed everything even showers But the worse than that is that boomers became the the uh the generation of war How did this happen They became the generation of loving wars Boomers used to chant make love not war Now they wave Ukrainian flags from their homes on Martha’s Vineyard and beg for World War II They gave us endless foreign wars really starting under Bill Clinton and into the Obama era The Patriot Act surveillance under George W Bush another rhino not a true conservative Wall Street bailouts no one went to prison Drag shows in elementary schools across the country Pornography in our libraries for children And fentanyl crisis killing hundreds of thousands of Americans a year That’s what they gave us They didn’t just ruin the economy they destroyed the culture of America younger Americans especially the working class have had enough We’re not falling for the these boomer lies anymore We’re not joining their wars We’re not chasing their degrees or paying for their broken system anymore So President Trump has tapped into a generational fury right now That I think is getting worse getting worse by the minute These younger generations are fed up with what these boomers did to us the same boomers who are now spending their days going to pay George Soros protests against Doge Imagine being so clueless that you’re upset that Doge is eliminating waste fraud and abuse in our government It’s all baby boomers showing up at these rallies or largely overwhelmingly baby boomers showing up here Very few young people I love this one young liberal who went to a rally and was shocked that there were no young people only seniors Listen to this liberal upset about all of the seniors at these rallies Watch Can I chime in real quickly I just want to make sure Uh I I did not censor this So the the original language is still in it Okay I forgot to do that Okay So you got a language warning Language warning Everyone listen to this liberal’s dirty mouth Watch I’m at the protest right now in New York City Anti-Trump anti-fascist protest And I have one question Where the is Gen Z These people are cheering They’re talking like it’s just the 60s It’s just like the 60s And they’re having conversations and and walking slowly There’s no fight here There’s no youth here It’s all 30omes and their children And then seniors and God bless everybody who showed up today but I’m really disappointed in the youth turnout Where is the youth turnout This is your future that is going to be impacted by the actions of the Trump administration Yeah Really It’s the Trump administration’s fault Yeah You know where they are Where where are these young people Um they’re at their jobs They’re probably working hard actually Probably working very hard to try to put food on the table right now to actually sustain a living while these boomers are out there protesting Elon Musk Well did you Donald Trump Go ahead Did Did you see Door Dash enthusiastically added financing to their like you can order their food now through Door Dash and finance it What Through like a firm and things like that Oh my god That’s how bad it’s gotten for a cheeseburger Yes Yeah You almost need to And I I’m really thinking about how are young people going to be able to afford their future I mean yesterday we went for lunch We took our son uh cuz he had a doctor’s appointment So we popped over and went and got we got a little lunch and just for the three of us for like a real basic real simple small lunch It was like over $40 Mhm I was like there’s no way And it wasn’t we didn’t sit down didn’t have service table ser it was just real fast and it was crazy $40 How are young people going to afford their future So they’re working They’re not hanging out these these George Soros funded protests right And think of who this you know this leadership class of the Bushes and the Clintons who did they protect right So they gave all of this lip service to oh we’re protecting the elderly from frauds and scams while they let while we were in college we got predative uh predatory credit cards in our student union mailed to us ad nauseium with inflated educational prices Who was protecting the young people then right And it wasn’t and again most of us just didn’t know because it was done under the guise of so many so many nonsensical logic so much you know we just were never told the truth and the one thing that this generation of leaders was really good at was a bait and switch We’re doing great things here while we’re doing things over here It’s taken years to unravel everything that they did Yeah And Instacart does it too Nathan says in our chat Nathan says that Instacart does the same thing as Door Dash does now too That’s crazy So yeah And the thing is it’s like 30% interest too Is it really Oh my god So you’re you’re buying a meal at 30% interest just to eat Like So get out there and protest Elon Musk Yeah Get out there and protest the $36 trillion in debt No No Don’t do that Go protest President Trump for cutting that waste fraud and abuse And look I don’t support President Trump on a on a number of issues specifically on the Middle East right now you know have been very vocal about that But on this actually trying to make America a manufacturing hub again and actually bring jobs back to the United States Um absolutely And he’s a boomer He may be the boomer that actually can do something about this I don’t know He was born in 1946 He is a boomer He’s like the ultimate boomer definition of a boomer So the baby boomers will go down in history as the most selfish destructive and short-sighted generation America has ever seen They inherited greatness and returned debt drag shows and dollar store towns with no factories But the good news is there’s a new generation is ready to rebuild what these boomers destroyed And again if you’re watching this and you’re a boomer I’m not talking about you I’m talking about the uniarty boomers who destroyed this country So that’s all I have to say about Experience Socialism
