BREAKING: Gen Z males are turning away from Donald Trump but are not aligning with the Democratic Party either, expressing frustration with both sides, per Atrioc.

President Donald Trump’s support among Generation Z voters has slipped sharply in recent months, even as his overall approval rating has remained steady, according to a new YouGov/Economist poll.
The survey, conducted between October 17 and 20, found that just 25 percent of Gen Z respondents approve of Trump’s performance, while 67 percent disapprove — a net approval of –42 points. That marks a notable decline from September (30–64, –34) and August (30–67, –37).
The trend suggests that younger voters—who briefly warmed to Trump during the 2024 election—are once again drifting away. According to AP VoteCast, voters aged 18 to 29 backed Kamala Harris over Trump by just 51 percent to 47 percent in 2024, a far smaller margin than Joe Biden’s 61–36 victory among the same age group in 2020. But the latest polling shows that Trump’s tenuous foothold among Gen Z may be slipping for good.
