Summary
Donald Trump’s popularity among Generation Z voters has sharply declined since the 2024 election, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll.
His net favorability among 18-29-year-olds has dropped from +19 in November to -18, raising concerns for Republicans about sustaining youth support.
While Trump gained ground with young voters in 2024, recent policies—such as his mass deportation plan and targeting of DEI initiatives—may have contributed to this decline.
I’ll echo the other reply - red states will not have them, blue and some purple states will. I suspect we will continue to have the facade of democracy for a while, and may see the Democrats take the House and maybe the Senate in 2026.
The real question is, if there are elections in 2028, and the Republicans lose, will there be a transfer of power? I don’t have a good feeling about the answer, but only time will tell. Four years is a long time for an obese old man with a very stressful job to live, and I don’t think there is anyone who can easily take over Trump’s cult of personality and take the reins of the fascist movement.
i imagine there will have to be, otherwise there will literally be a civil war. Unless they rig voting somehow.
They’re completely ignoring congress right now and they control both chambers. You think they’re going to start listening if the democrats gain control?!
This will not be solved by an election. Germany couldn’t vote away Hitler. Russia can’t vote away Putin. And America can’t vote away
ElonTrump.Anyone who believes there is a peaceful way they can sit on their ass and hopefully maybe one day vote the problem away is in denial.
