Trump's Youth Decline

U.S. President Donald Trump faces a significant drop in approval among young male voters, with a net -19 among men under 25.
Analysts say this decline could undermine the Republican Party (GOP) ahead of the midterms, as Republicans rely on male support to offset Democratic advantages among women.
Experts note that rising prices and other economic issues could further hurt Trump's standing if not addressed.

Trump's Approval Plummets

U.S. President Donald Trump sees his approval rating fall below 40% for the first time in his second term, according to Nate Silver's tracking.
The decline is linked to rising gas prices and broader economic issues, while Silver notes tariffs and the ongoing Iran War shape opinion.
A Pew Research Center survey shows Trump unfavorably viewed by most demographic groups, except Republicans, and only 22% hold a strongly favorable view.
