Breaking news, Trump's approval rating among Gen Z has rapidly collapsed.
To break this down, I'm joining friend of the show Cameron Kasky.

Trump is losing Gen Z fast and it's a sight to behold, but we all kind of knew it was
going to happen.
My name is Cameron Kasky with Bulwark.
I'm joined today by my brother, Adam Mockler.
Adam, did you see this coming?
It was patently obvious when Trump made a bunch of campaign promises that were all inherently
contradictory and impossible to execute on.
And what is it?
A 44 point drop in popularity among Gen Z.
I mean, to be honest, he gaslit Gen Zers during the campaign.
He gaslit the country and made all of these economic promises, promises to end wars.
He gets into office, obviously doesn't have the acumen to enact any of this, to end any
of these wars, but he's made it worse.
70% of Americans think he should focus more on lowering prices.
Meanwhile, he's screaming about Obama and he's enacting tariffs worldwide.
So let's talk about some of the issues.
Yeah. And he's also definitely part of a huge pedophile network.
CBS News poll says Trump's approval trends among ages 18, 29.
Early February, 55 percent approve, 45% disapprove.
But now in July, we see 28% approve, as you said, a 44 point drop and 72% disapprove.
That is not a marginal error.
That is a pretty dramatic drop.
And I want to talk about why Gen Z is changing tune on it.
And I also want to talk about why I think is changing tune on it.
And I also want to talk about why I think the reasons Trump won and the reasons Kamala
Harris lost are not necessarily the same exact thing.
But first off, it's like, what do you think is the biggest issue he's losing people on?
Because I don't think Gen Z's Trump shift was as policy related as it was
kind of cultural and generally ideological or whatever. But I'm interested in knowing what you
think if people were pulled the top issue he's fucking up on is. In order to answer that question,
why he's being increasingly unpopular, we have to go back and answer the original question that you were going to pose, which is why was he popular in the first place?
Why was he even above water by a few percentage points? That is because Gen Zers, a lot of
people in the country want a change agent, wants someone that can push against the status
quo. I think Kamala ran a pretty solid campaign. I covered it. I was, I was, you know, talking
about her every single day and how I enjoyed her policies. I do it. But like, she didn't run as a change agent.
There was even a moment where she said she wasn't going to be significantly different
than Biden. And that went viral. Meanwhile, Donald Trump obviously lied every single day
said he was going to shake up the system. He was going to release the files and end
the wars and he was going to do tariffs, which nobody else has done in 100 years. So he was
going to shake everything up.
So Jen Zier's thought, huh, there is a change agent who was in the spaces that I watch.
I mean, they watched like Joe Rogan.
We watch like Theo Vaughn or whatever.
And then when you begin to watch that Trump is on there, not really using his radical
rhetoric, but kind of just toning it down a bit.
So Jen Zier's thought they were gaslit and they're thinking that maybe Trump would lower
the cost of housing.
That's what he said.
Now, obviously, we didn't believe that, but some people did.
As time's gone on, what has he done?
He's not ended a single war.
Housing prices are going to go up because of the tariffs on lumber coming from Canada.
You can look at Nonu Wars, which he struck Iran.
He said he was going to release the files.
He's only created a deeper swamp that can now cover up the files.
And he also doesn't even understand his own war policy because he said he was going to
end Russia-Ukraine in one day.
Obviously that didn't happen.
He was scrambling a lot on the matter doing his we'll figure out in two weeks thing, two
weeks after two weeks after two weeks.
And now you see he's taking this shift towards
maybe supporting Ukraine a little bit more and saying that Putin is kind of like a lying snake
and a fake friend and everything like that. And it's just so surprising to me because I knew that
Trump wasn't going to end Russia Ukraine. But if and when that was the case, I thought that he was
just going to take this aggressively Putin stance. But now he's like, wait a second, I got hoodwinked. And I think this might be one of the most prime
examples of Trump not being able to hide realizing that he got screwed over in front of everybody.
Like this is one of Trump's most transparent, I got duped moments. But it's interesting that you
say all that about the change aids and stuff. It kind of brings
to mind the Zoran Cuomo race, where you see Zoran obliterate Cuomo and you look at just the basic
idea of the campaign. And you've got one potential mayor saying, I want to change things in this city.
And then you've got Andrew Cuomo running on the idea that everything is actually working and I'm
just going to keep it that way.
There was no real sense of what he was going to do to change anything.
But now I'm wondering if Trump is losing Gen Z, how can he win them back?
How can Trump win Gen Z back?
I honestly think what Gen Z wants is so antithetical to what Trump wants and it's just impossible.
So part of the reason why Gen Z was able to be swayed over
is because during some of our most formative years,
sometimes people weren't paying attention.
So people who just turned 18 in the 2024 election,
they were 10 when Trump was first elected.
So during those formative years,
they were probably in middle school, high school,
as we were, I was paying attention,
and I'm sure you were because we're politically inclined,
but a lot of Gen Zers were just kind of entering politics, voting
for the first time and thought maybe Trump would be this change agent. But now we're
seeing him in action. And he's so antithetical to what we want, because we want a better
future for ourselves. He wants to conserve things. He wants a regressive policy that
only helps him and his billionaire friends. Like I was, when I was debating Kevin O'Leary,
the billionaire on Shark Tank, he kept talking about,
I was debating him at CNN, he's from Shark Tank.
Do you guys, if you want on Shark Tank
to just in front of all the sharks,
go out with Kevin O'Leary, maybe he'll invite you over.
Debating them, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was a great clip, by the way.
It seemed like you were fucking vibing up there.
Like you seemed like you were having a great time.
But the point is, and I wish I would have been able
to make this on stage, but I was thinking about it
more after, he kept bringing up the stock market
over and over and over, saying he's doing great.
Check your portfolio, look at my portfolio,
and it's like, dude, you're missing the point.
Most Americans don't have $500 to cover an emergency,
and you're sitting up here on TV talking about
how well your portfolio is doing.
So when that relates to Gen Zers, it's like Trump and his billionaire friends want to
gloat about how much they're benefiting from this.
But dude, the cost of living is going to go up.
70% of Americans, like I said, want him to focus more on prices and Trump is currently
taking Qatari jets and promoting Trump coin.
One of the interesting things to me about how many people Trump is losing, especially
in Gen Z, but really across the board, is the fact that he's also losing the podcast
bros who are so credited with giving him the victory in 2024.
Anyway, I mean, you've got Joe Rogan going after him about ICE.
You've got Theo von talking about Palestine.
You've got what's his name, the guy with the stupid mustache,
Andrew Schultz, Andrew Schultz talking about how AOC,
Bernie and Zoran are the America first candidates.
And it's like Trump's massive cultural victory has
blown up in his face so aggressively he can't even hold the people
who aren't policy experts. It's not just the people who look at his face so aggressively, he can't even hold the people who aren't policy experts.
It's not just the people who look at his tariffs
and say this is a disaster who are turning against Trump.
It's also just the,
it's also the people who are only in it for the vibes.
Yeah, I agree.
I would not underestimate the extent to which ICE
and the immigration policy has affected Trump's popularity.
There's another poll showing that he's dropped
10 to 12 points in popularity just over the
past few months on immigration.
And that's supposed to be his biggest issue.
That was people.
That's the thing is like even in 2016, like this man ran three presidential campaigns,
basically on getting rid of the immigrants.
And then he does exactly what he says he was going to do.
And people are like, well, that's not what I wanted.
There's a difference between what people think they want
and what they actually want a lot of the times.
You see this with like universal health care.
There's a lot of polling where like 90% of Americans
want some form of universal.
It's like 80 to 90%, some outrageous number.
But then when you get into it and you're like,
this necessitates actually doing this and that,
people's views on it change a little bit.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't try, but there's a difference between what people say they
want and what they vote for versus what they're actually willing to give up.
So now that they're actually seeing the on the ground consequences of ICE hitting this
quota of 3000 deportations a day or sorry, 3000 detainments a day that will lead to deportations.
They're not happy with it because to hit 3000, you're not just going to hit criminals.
There's not 3000 criminals to retain a day.
You're going to start to hit the farm workers.
You're going to start to hit the 82 year old grandpa.
That's a real story, by the way, an 82 year old grandpa got f-ing deported.
His family was like, what the hell?
And then the most disgusting part, and I keep making this point, but the most disgusting
part is when people who are asylum seekers and following the proper procedures show up to their courthouse for their day
in court.
They've been waiting for a while.
They're like, yes, I want to follow the rules in this country.
We show up and deport them.
Not we, but I, the Trump administration.
It's disgusting.
I was going to say, man, you should really stop doing that in that case.
You should go back to debating Mr. Wonderful.
That's been my question sort of is like, you know, it's very nice to see the zoomers kind
of waking up to the Trump stuff.
If only it had happened like, you know, eight months beforehand, it would be in a better
situation.
But like, or honestly, like, God, it's been so fucking long.
I saw it was the one year anniversary of the Harris campaign the other day.
And it really put into perspective, like, oh, she had no time to do this.
That was so crazy.
But anyway, Trump loses the zoomers and I'm starting to wonder what little goodies he's
going to try to bribe us with to get us back.
Because when Trump loses a base, when he when he fucks up, excuse me, Fs up with a crowd.
He normally tries to give everyone sort of a present.
It's this kind of MAGA tactic of cut people,
watch them say, ow, give them a tiny little band-aid,
and make it act like you did something nice for them.
So, like, maybe he's gonna do something like
what Kamala Harris pledged to do, you know,
uh, 15, $20,000 for people trying to buy a starter home.
Maybe he's gonna try to make some sort of present for Gen Z.
It was attached to the big, uh, ugly bill,
the, um, no tax on tips thing.
That was supposed to be sort of like
a generous gift to people.
Do you think he's gonna try to sweeten the deal for us
a little bit and say,
hey, Zoomers, here's a present from Donald Trump so you can remember how much I love you? No, I don't think he cares.
I honestly think he's already using a meat shield and it's Obama.
He's literally trying to put Obama in front of him by saying like, oh, Obama is a treasonous
trader, but it's really uniquely weak.
Like if you're in the bottom 10 percentile of IQ in the country, maybe you'll believe
it. Maybe you'll be like, huh, Obama treasonous. A decade and a half later. I'm glad Trump
found that out right when the Epstein files were getting beginning to gain steam. But
for the rest of the country, like the other 90 percent will be like, wait a minute, why
is Trump screaming about Obama in the Oval Office when Obama was quite a good president?
He's obviously flawed in some ways, but he was quite a good president. A great guy, very charismatic.
I just don't know how this Epstein-Obama distraction is supposed to play out.
You can tell that he's intentionally trying to divert people away.
It's like sleight of hand, like a magician.
But Gen Z is not going to fall for that.
We don't froth at the mouth for Obama conspiracy theories.
A lot of my Trump apologist Zoomer friends, not necessarily pro-Trump, but certainly not, you know,
like making Trump vids on YouTube like us type of guys.
Even they're like, this Epstein stuff is pretty crazy, right?
And I'm just sitting here like we knew, we've known this.
Like, I don't know.
Anyway, leave a comment down below
on how you think Donald Trump might win back the
Zoomers.
Adam, thanks so much for joining me today.
Bless you, sir.
Keep up the great work.
We'll talk soon.
Let's keep ripping it.
Thank you, man.
