Scott Walker acknowledged the important role students played in determining the outcome but viewed the problem facing the party in a cultural context. “Young voters are the issue,” he wrote on Twitter. “It comes from years of radical indoctrination — on campus, in school, with social media, & throughout culture. We have to counter it or conservatives will never win battleground states again.”

Heh.
