Trump And The Economy

Generation Z Men Turn Against Trump: Amazing Turnaround!

Political reporter Harry Enten of CNN has revealed that Generation Z men have made a massive switch against Donald Trump, an amazing turnaround since the Presidential Election of 2024.

Trump was the first Republican Presidential nominee in the 21st century to capture the young male vote in 2024, but it has switched from a one point edge to minus 55 in less than a year and a half.

On foreign policy, Trump won Generation Z men by 9 points, but now is minus 54 points, a switch of 63 points.

On the economy, Trump had a margin of 7 points, but now is minus 59, a switch of 66 points.

Regarding Congress, Generation Z men voted for Democrats by 3 points, now up to 28 percentage points lead.

It is clear that young men are exasperated over the inability to plan to purchase a home, or find decent employment that provides optimism for the future.

Also, young men see JD Vance as minus 48 and Marco Rubio as minus 39, so it augurs for real trouble for Republicans, when it comes to who might succeed Donald Trump as the Republican Presidential nominee in 2028.

However, Democrats still have problems having Americans trust them, with many voters feeling the party is too “liberal”, which makes the problem of who is the best candidate for Democrats in 2028 problematical.

Motivating Americans to vote, including millions who did not vote in 2024, will be the major issue that decides the Midterm Elections of 2026. And Independents, and young voters, will be crucial factors.

On a generic ballot, Democrats at present have a five point edge, but whether that will hold or expand in the next six months, is hard to project.
