A new Third Way poll of male voters between the ages of 18 to 29 finds a whopping 58% believe Donald Trump has negatively impacted their finances, vs. just 23% who say he’s had a positive impact.
The young men gave Trump a dismal 32% approval rating, compared to 66% who disapprove. That 34-point gap is a far cry from Trump’s 2024 numbers: he won 18- to 29-year-old male voters by 14 points on his way back to the White House.
