COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa — Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) isn’t the only Gen X candidate running for president, but he’s probably the most Gen X candidate running for president.
Before and after DeSantis speaks at his Iowa rallies, the music blaring over the loudspeakers is as Gen X as it gets. There’s no Taylor Swift, and there’s no Rolling Stones. It’s Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen, with Neil Young being the most Boomer tunes you’ll hear. “We Built This City” blared over the loudspeakers in Council Bluffs shortly before Casey DeSantis took the stage Saturday morning.
