Donald Trump’s Approval Rating Erodes With Male Voters Before Midterms

Donald Trump’s Approval Rating Erodes With Male Voters Before Midterms

Summary

President Donald Trump's approval rating among men dropped by eight points to a net negative 19, according to a recent Economist/YouGov poll. This decline could be significant for Republicans because male voters, especially younger and less-educated men, have been a key part of Trump's support base.

Key Facts

  • The latest poll was conducted from October 10 to 12 with 1,403 registered voters.
  • 40% of men approved of President Trump’s performance, while 59% disapproved.
  • Trump’s net approval among men fell by eight points from a negative 11 in early October to negative 19 now.
  • Previous polls from September to early October showed more stable approval ratings around 42-44% with no consistent downward trend.
  • The margin of error for the poll is about ±3.5 percentage points, so small changes could vary.
  • Political experts say this drop may signal weakening male support, important because men have traditionally supported Trump strongly.
  • Male voter support is important for Republican candidates to win and turn out voters in the 2024 midterm elections.
  • The White House described Trump as a strong leader focused on keeping Republican majorities in Congress.
