Non-college voters, the base of the MAGA movement, are abandoning the GOP.
MAGA's net favorability is -22 pts (down 28 pts) with them. Trump's now at -19 pt net approval with them. Dems actually lead in the race for Congress with them.
This is what blue waves are built on.

🚨 1/2 Be careful to not slip into confirmation bias. The following was a good poll that CNN reported on for MAGA back in March 2026 yet this poll being reported on now also by CNN is far from good:

🚨🚨 2/2 The GOP pretending the current system is 100% “free market capitalism” is the problem when the current system has devolved over decades to now an overwhelmingly oligarchical, crony capitalist system rife with corruption and nepotism.
The GOP calling this capitalism, telling people to eat Ramen, ignoring that (as Matt Walsh said there was a time when the poor had more flexibility in affording fast food than now which has disappeared), and denying the current reality of near-complete lack of affordability for many items, will only breed more “anti-capitalists.”
Quit arguing AGAINST socialism.
Argue FOR ending all Corporate Welfare.
Argue for no government investment in private corporations.
Google AI: “The U.S. government has rapidly expanded this practice into a broader portfolio strategy. While direct equity ownership used to be rare and limited to emergency bailouts, recent federal initiatives have secured direct equity or quasi-equity stakes in roughly 30 private companies across critical tech, mineral, and industrial sectors.”
Argue FOR ending fiat currency, print/borrow and spend til you drop. Argue FOR dismantling the oligarchical, crony capitalist system rife with corruption and nepotism and how you’re going to do it.
CNN data analyst Harry Enten (speaking with host John Berman) reports a sharp drop in support for the MAGA movement and Donald Trump among non-college adults—the core demographic that powered Trump’s presidential wins.
Key points from the polling trends he presents:
Notice the removal in primaries of non-MAGA Republicans. I think that contradicts this poll.
I don’t believe this. No MAGA republicans want socialism.
No MAGA republicans want socialism.

Just losing motivation to vote changes the results.
Polling is flat out unreliable. El Sayed was ahead of his primary opponent by 15% a week before election day.....he won by 1%....
It’s a lot simpler then that.
Impose serious tariffs to protect domestic jobs and to bring back offshored business, either through corporate relocation or protecting re-starts.
Secure the border completely. $150B is a nice start, but this is the existence of the American people we’re talking about. It’s not a flophouse for the failures of the Third World. Use every military option available to lock down HARD so that Cartel Sinaloa/Jalisco Nueva Generacion et al have to go out of business. Or just attack them with Special Forces and wipe them out. Who gives a crap what the skinny Jewish woman thinks about that.
People in High Point want their furniture jobs back. Carpenters in Colorado wanna be able to do their job and afford a family. Truckers on I-80 don’t want to ever hear Hindi or Punjabi ever again at a coffee shop in Wells.
It’s really that simple.
DJT did his damndest on these points. Got about 1/2 what he pushed, and about 1/4 what we need.
That’s it. Save the USA for the Americans. That’s all the idiot checked jacket / white shoe GOP has to do.
It’s either that or...gone

“Not to change the subject from burritos but when I was earning poverty wages in my 20s I used to go to Subway nearly every day and get a footlong Italian sub for 5 dollars. It was generally the only big meal I would eat in a day.
If I was hungry later at night, I could always swing by McDonald’s and grab a chicken sandwich for a dollar.
All of these people are screaming about “eating at home” but I basically never made meals at home in those days and I was able to get by. You used to be able to survive on low wages without making meals from scratch. If that’s not possible anymore then it’s a sign that our standard of living is declining. That’s a problem. You should care about that.
Anyway, I went to a Subway recently and that same sandwich was 13 dollars. McDonald’s, of course, doesn’t sell anything for a dollar anymore.”

“The GOP calling this capitalism, telling people to eat Ramen...”
The GOP is not telling people to eat Ramen.
Another gullible idiot.
This is CNN. They can’t poll non-college voters. That is why the polls were so drastically off in Michigan.
This is all complete horse shit.
Sure thing: now get lost.
The dollar lost 25 percent of its value during Biden’s four years.
Supposedly, these disaffected MAGA voters want that back?
People right of center don’t answer polls.
Voting doesn’t really matter if the will of the people isn’t heeded. I’m talking about CONgress. Obviously having the majority doesn’t matter. They’ll continue blocking Trumps agenda and the will of the people. How about all those pro forma sessions???
Moving away? Moving where, Mamdani AOC ? Hey, HILLARY! I’m with her!
Move to forgetting to vote.

Just losing motivation to vote changes the results.
The only reason I’m voting at all is to get Ossoff out! Otherwise I’m pretty much done unless I start seeing results. Screw them all.
