Wasington Post -In November, men ages 18 to 29 voted for Trump by a 14-point margin (56 percent to 42 percent). It was the first time a GOP presidential candidate claimed an outright majority of the group since 1988 (when George H.W. Bush swept most age and gender combinations in a landslide victory, unlike Trump’s slim popular-vote win).
Democrats have conducted many postmortems since November examining how they could reclaim the Gen Z “bro vote.” But they haven’t stemmed the losses so far. In a YouGov survey conducted this week, young men gave Trump a “net favorability” rating (the share of who approve of Trump’s performance as president minus those who don’t) of +20. The numbers are noisy week to week, because this is a small subset of the overall population. But even monthly trends with larger sample sizes show Trump comfortably above water among young men since the election. In February thus far, they give him +8. For context, for most of his political career, Trump has been more disliked than liked by the general public. More
