... The latest figures from Echelon Insights show Trump is now firmly underwater with this group -- marking a dramatic reversal from the early months of his second term, when he enjoyed strong positive ratings among less-educated voters. For a demographic that has consistently anchored Republican electoral success in recent years, the shift signals a potentially significant crack in the coalition that returned Trump to the White House. ... According to the latest Echelon Insights poll, Trump's overall approval stands at 38 percent, with 61 percent disapproving (net minus 23). Among voters with a high school education or less, approval is 41 percent, disapproval 57 percent (net minus 16), which is the lowest it has been with this demographic in this polling series. In July 2025, his net approval with this group was minus 7. At the start of his second term, he held a net plus-18 approval rating with less-educated voters. That equates to a 34-point swing since January 2025 among this key demographic. ...

In my opinion, Trump is no longer manly enough.
Sad!

There is nothing in the least bit "manly" about Trump. He reeks of insecurity, weakness, and poos#fication.

Too little, too late. The damage has been done and we're going to have to spend their lifetimes getting back to what we had 50 years ago. Considering who controls pretty much all the sources of information in this country, I'm not optimistic. Happily proved wrong, but skeptical.

I doubt it.
The local pack of high school dropouts around here still worship him.

Who cares? Trump need not face voters again. Instead, he will cling to power for the rest of his tortured life, with his children conducting their own version of "The Hunger Games" to see who comes out on top, at Der Dotard's death, to run what's left of this once-great land.
IN THE MEANTIME, RELEASE THE TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES...

Trump...A sclerotic and boastful American octogenarian, physically, morally and mentally degenerate and therefore embalmed like a walking mummy with psychotropic, steroid and energizing drugs, a libidinous and derailed aropausist rich man who wanted to be the terrifying master of the planet, but ended up as its clown, all this while threatening and blackmailing the civilized and democratic states of NATO and the EU with all kinds of stupid nonsense, thus playing the games of the schizophrenic KGB criminal Putin and the old Chinese communist psychopath Xi, who laughed at him together with the indiscreet communist dictator of North Korea and the terrorist Islamist mullahs of Iran.

It's funny how the only demographic that's really sticking to the orange pedophile is the jesus freak crowd.
Not really that surprising though. After all, "youth pastor" is just a synonym for "pedophile". And the zombie cult has always considered women and children nothing more than property to be abused, their sick book makes that pretty clear.
