How would the younger generations, especially those without money, contribute to the right wing
The right wing (and left) do things to endear “their base” to them come next election. Our direct neighbors are just one example of many: felt strongly that they should be treating their father - in hospital with COVID - with Ivermectin. They were raging against “the system” that withheld Ivermectin from them for his treatment, and ecstatic when they finally got him transferred to an institution that would respect their wishes. He and his wife left this earth a couple of months later, and now they are owners of the rental properties they used to just manage for their parents, they also spend most of their time traveling. How do you think they’ll be voting this go around?
The number of people aged 40-60 I know who aren’t on speaking terms with their parents, but still on-track to inherit their parents’ wealth when they die is astoundingly high. They support policies such as eliminating inheritance taxes, passive income taxes, etc. etc. and they will vote for candidates who promise to do that.
Sadly true, but from the inside there’s basically two choices, which I find hard not to call “Dumb and Dumber.”
The D party plays to college graduates who have good jobs (like me) - it works, but I call it the Dumb party because a lot of what they promise gets destroyed before actual implementation. Continuing to vote for false promises of smart solutions: Dumb in my book.
When I see an independent candidate worthy of the vote, I vote for them. Unfortunately, most independents that have appeared on my ballots would fall into the “Dumbest” category.

You literally only have 2 right parties, there is no left representation, lol.

Then there’s the other choice: Dumber.
Always have the choice to start over 👍

That’s a tough situation
I started calling it Floriduh a couple of years ago, lived here for 50+ more years before that, it’s kind of sliding down suntan-oiled rails to hell.
I’ve never been and don’t plan on it, lol.
You seen a beach you like? Stick with it, there’s nothing magic left here.
