Trump's net approval rating among voters under the age of 30 drops by 56 points:

Pollster: Trump's net approval rating among voters under the age of 30 is going into a deep, dark black hole. Look at that, -46. That is a shift on the net approval of 56 points in the wrong direction since February. We almost never see drops this big, this quickly.

The vast majority of those gains weren't based on those voters actually liking him, it was dissatisfaction with higher prices they were seeing, and they were desperate for something, ANYTHING different.

Well, they got different, and it didn't take them long to realize Trump pulled the wool over their eyes and has no intentions of doing anything to lower prices.

Too many young people, especially young men, made a very ignorant decision. They may be catching on but so much damage is already done.

job market sucks, economy sucks, cost of living sucks..................

Republicans are about to further destroy healthcare for millions, they are cutting snap, Medicare, SS, SSI, Medicaid/Medi-Cal......

Republicans are aligning themselves with dictators, and probably a war will commerce.

shithole is knowingly with the help of the 6 asshole justices of the US SC are destroying our democracy.

I hope their belated learning curve doesn't cost us dearly. There's plenty of blame to go around. It's not just the fault of the young people.
