President Donald Trump’s grip on young men is slipping—and fast.
Once a natural draw for this crucial voting bloc that helped fuel his 2024 victory, the president is now facing growing distrust and frustration, according to a new poll from the Speaking with American Men project shared with Puck.
The survey paints a damning picture: Trump’s favorability among young men has fallen to 46%, down from 56% last spring. Among all young people, it dips to a dismal 36%.
Pollster John Della Volpe, who surveyed 4,211 people ages 16 to 29 from Oct. 28 to Nov. 6 last year, traces much of the slide to economic disappointment—trade shocks, tariffs, and rising costs that failed to ease the financial strain young Americans were counting on him to address.
