"He lost the support of young white men. He has even lost among so-called 'low information' voters, people who don’t pay much attention to politics and do not vote regularly.

All so he could arrest 4,000 immigrants he claims are in this country illegally. That is a very, very high price."

"He is underwater on every issue he cares about, starting with the issue he believes put him in the White House, immigration. He has lost the support of people who flipped from Joe Biden to Trump between 2020 and 2024. He has lost the support of Latinos. He has lost the support of people between 18 and 35."

"What actually happened in 2024 was that low-knowledge voters believed Trump when he promised to bring prices way down and deliver unprecedented prosperity. 'Low-knowledge' isn’t a pejorative: G. Elliott Morris uses it to mean voters who don’t know which party controls the House and Senate. These voters went strongly for Trump in 2024, but their opinion of him has crashed."

"It took only a year for Americans outside the Republican base to decide that Biden was actually a better president. ... That was fast. And it belies the conventional wisdom that still sees Trump’s 1.5 percentage point popular vote margin in 2024 — smaller than Hillary Clinton’s margin in 2016! — as marking a fundamental realignment of U.S. politics."

"Trump won in 2024 in large part because ~one-quarter of the electorate wasn’t paying enough attention to his promises to know much about what he’d do as president. Now that they are seeing the results — especially on prices — they are just as anti-Trump as voters who spend all day consuming political news."

"Today, the president’s support among low-knowledge voters has cratered to just 43%, according to a new analysis of data from our January Strength In Numbers/Verasight poll. The share of 2024 voters who now disapprove of the president is well over 55%."

"In 2024, the voters who knew the least about politics were some of Donald Trump’s strongest supporters. One pre-election poll found Americans who didn’t consume any news at all said they’d vote for him over Kamala Harris by a 20-point margin, 60% to 40%."
