MAGA reeling from Trump’s historic collapse among white men

Social media is still ringing from a painful recent Fox News poll delivering some of the most damaging news President Donald Trump could probably get.

The poll’s most brutal finding was that Trump is not only losing serious ground among groups he made surprising inroads with in 2024. He’s also cratering with his most loyal constituency: white men.

The Fox survey revealed Trump’s approval was underwater with working-class whites (46–54), rural voters (43–57), and general white men (48–52). Other, less revelatory news, was that Trump was faltering among young voters (31–69), Latinos (33–67), and working-class voters of all races (40–60).

Pollsters already knew Trump blew his 2024 gains with nonwhite working people for months, but the plummeting approval among white constituents was the final blow among social media critics.

“Traitor Trump is toast. He is underwater with everybody. Only the most brainwashed of cultists still approve of what he is doing,” wrote one X account that sounds nothing like the MAGA message the owner has been posting since 2023.

Other accounts claiming to be “conservative” also blasted Trump’s latest loss, with one X user posting: “The old folk is his only core block left that doesn’t see the sham he’s running. The ‘trust the plan’ crowd and Fox News crowd are by far my favorite groups. Hilarious people.”

Other accounts quickly acknowledged the brewing disaster for Trump and the Republican Party in the November midterms. “Disastrous stuff here. This doesn’t make these voters vote blue, but if enough of them stay home, that is a big problem,” said the critic.

Many other MAGA posters immediately dismissed the results as fake news, despite the poll coming from Fox News. “These bum pollsters can release as many of these push polls as they want, it won't make them any more true,” said one heckler, mirroring the claims of others.

Trump’s grip on U.S. white men is legendary in that he managed to harness white grievance against social safety net programs and inclusivity and use it to win the 2024 election, with the help of the belief that he could do a better job on the economy than his Democratic predecessor. But Trump’s numbers on the economy are even worse, with only 29 percent of voters approving of his handling of it, while a brutal 71 percent disapprove. On inflation the voting public has a 76-to-24 disapproval — with all core voter groups disapproving of Trump’s economic performance in huge majorities.

Wilmington College adjunct professor Keith Orejel, after seeing Trump’s historic collapse among white voters, said Trump gave Democrat a unique opportunity to dominate D.C. politics, if only they had the will to take it.

“If you ask a lot of normie Dems they would say this group is unreachable and governed by nothing but culture wars. And yet here we are, -8 because Trump tanked the economy,” Orejel posted on X.
