A new Yale Youth Poll finds 57% of all voters disapprove of Donald Trump’s job performance as president, including 68% of voters aged 18-22 and 72% of voters aged 23-29.

Compared to the fall 2025 poll, Trump has lost the most ground with women under 35 and men under 30.

Yet he has to give his speeches from behind bulletproof class and doesn’t go out and walk around DC at all

Hate Trump ≠ voting for Dems. At least not according to what I hear from young eligible voters. Most of them have nothing but contempt for Schumer and Jeffries too.

“Bar none.”

As President, the man called “a fucking moron” by his Secretary of State could use his power to save the planet, preserve the nation and create a better future for all.

Instead he makes the rich richer and everyone else miserable, scared, scarred, or dead.

Young people are perceptive.
