Summary

Donald Trump’s popularity among Generation Z voters has sharply declined since the 2024 election, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll.

His net favorability among 18-29-year-olds has dropped from +19 in November to -18, raising concerns for Republicans about sustaining youth support.

While Trump gained ground with young voters in 2024, recent policies—such as his mass deportation plan and targeting of DEI initiatives—may have contributed to this decline.

    Sitting around and waiting for someone else to save you is defeatist. There’s no magic fix to this. You have to get up and do it yourself.

      I’ll do what I can but I can’t stop the zoomers from listening to Rogan any more than I could stop the boomers from listening to Limbaugh.
