Economic concerns and growing disenchantment with both parties is draining support for Trump among Gen Z young men, a key bloc of support during the 2024 election
Male Gen Z voters are breaking with Donald Trump and the Republican party at large, recent polls show, less than a year after this same cohort defied convention and made a surprise shift right, helping Trump win the 2024 election.
Taken with wider polling suggesting Democrats will lead in the midterms, the findings on young men spell serious trouble for the Republican Party in 2026.
Younger Gen Z men, those born between 2002 and 2007, may be even more anti-Trump, according to October research from YouGov and the Young Men’s Research Project, a potential sign that their time living through the social upheavals of the Covid pandemic and not being political aware during the first Trump administration may be shaping their experience.
Ah yes, the Hillary Clinton strategy…
You’re aware these people will be voting for another ~50 years right?
They’re idiot kids who were taken advantage of, and you want to drive them to the right, by acting like someone on the right?
If you want to help, maybe you should become a Republican and chase people away from that party?
If you don’t want the R by your name to help the left, I don’t understand why you’re literally and significantly helping the right in that very comment
Do you just not under the ramifications of advocating for chasing teenagers away from the Dem party for life because of one vote?
I mean, we just got Hillary, Biden, and Kamala shoved down our throats. Lots of people who didn’t vote for any of those three can still be dependable lifelong Dem voters moving forward
We just have to stop shoving uncharismatic conservatives down their throats because “it’s the only other option”.
Finally someone smart.
