NORTHFIELD, Minn. — One critical group that helped president-elect Donald Trump complete his unprecedented political comeback: young men.

"This was an election about the economy" said Carleton College professor Dr. Ryan Dawkins.

Currently, the men of "Gen Z" are leaning towards former President Trump, according to polls. In Northfield, Chris Flemming is the President of St. Olaf College Republicans and says he sees that first hand.

"We've seen a lot more men joining the organization lately" Flemming told WCCO. "The Trump campaign did a great job reaching out to Gen Z men, the group that I'm a part of. I think Barron Trump had some good calls going on the Joe Rogan podcast, going on Theo Von."
