Let It Burn!

President Donald Trump's favorable rating among Generation Z voters has dramatically fallen since the 2024 election, according to a poll.

A survey from The Economist/YouGov released Wednesday revealed the president's net favorability rating among those aged 18-29 is minus 18 points. This is a drop from the plus 19 favorable rating he scored among this demographic in the days following November's race.

Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment via email.

Why It Matters

Trump made significant gains among young and first-time voters in the 2024 election compared to 2020. This was cited as a potential ideological shift for the youth vote. The poll results suggest Republicans cannot rely on this historically Democratic-leaning voting bloc for support in future elections.
 
His overall approval rating is also underwater at about 46 percent. This is starkly different from the ratings normally seen for Presidents at the beginning of their terms, often rising into the 70's or even higher. Trump's vaunted claim that he is above the law sounds even more ridiculous than it would if the country liked him.
