What the Evidence Shows
The claim breaks down into two key factual components: the initial approval rating of 55% among 18-29 year olds in February, and the current approval rating of 28%. Multiple sources referencing a recent CBS News poll corroborate these figures, reporting a drop from a 55% approval to 28% approval within this demographic over roughly six months.politicalwire.compoliticalwire.comTrump’s Support Collapses Among Young Voters

The sources are recent (July 2025) and come from credible polling data cited by reputable outlets such as Political Wire and Democratic Underground Forums, which reference the CBS News poll directly. While some other sources discuss Trump’s overall approval ratings or specific issues affecting his popularity, the specific age-group data aligns closely with the claim. There is no evidence contradicting these numbers, and the temporal context matches the claim’s timeframe.
The slight difference in phrasing (e.g., “today” vs. “now” in July 2025) is reasonable given the recency of the poll. The claim does not overstate or misrepresent the data; it accurately reflects a significant decline in young voter approval for Trump.
