What the Evidence Shows

The claim asserts a specific disapproval percentage (72%) among Americans aged 18-29 regarding Donald Trump's efforts. The search results include multiple recent polls on Trump's overall approval ratings and disapproval percentages across various demographic groups, but none specifically report a 72% disapproval rate for the 18-29 age group. Some polls mention overall disapproval rates ranging from the mid-50s to low 60s percent, and one source notes 72% disapproval among American Jews, which is a distinct demographic unrelated to the general 18-29 age group.

The absence of direct evidence or polling data supporting the exact figure for the specified age group means this claim cannot be verified with the provided sources. Additionally, polling data can vary by pollster, timing, and question wording, so without a named poll or methodology, the claim lacks sufficient context for validation.

Therefore, while it is plausible that younger Americans may have higher disapproval rates based on historical trends, the precise figure of 72% cannot be confirmed.
