The real estate investor beat out a Trump-backed candidate in North Carolina. But his victory is no "referendum" on the president he supports, Cawthorn said.
The 24-year-old real estate investor, a political newcomer, was trouncing his Republican primary opponent in the runoff race for the U.S. House seat vacated by Mark Meadows, who stepped down to become President Donald Trump's chief of staff.
Ever since, Cawthorn said, it has felt"like I'm drinking from a fire hose," participating in more than 60 interviews following the surprise victory. He is eager to improve the Republican messaging he feels is out of touch with his generation and, as a late-wave millennial, to be a voice for Generation Z, or"zoomers," in Congress.
"I do believe that I'm the response to the millennial generation, the first wave of it, because, overwhelmingly [that] generation is exceedingly liberal," he said, adding,"I look forward to being able to lead a new generation of patriots coming up." "Especially coming from my generation, we're so used to this intersectionality that happens" in society, he said, adding,"I'm more willing to take a second to consider someone else's upbringing or their perspective because I know that we're not all alike, and I know what it's like for someone to not consider my viewpoint from where I am in my background."
Republicans need to use social media"to explain our message of conservatism in a better light," he said.
