Pollster Says Young Men Abandoned Trump Over Israel and Costs

Faith Facts

• Proverbs 14:21 reminds believers that showing compassion to the needy honors the Lord, not the powerful.
• 1 Timothy 2:1-2 calls Christians to pray for leaders so that we may lead quiet and peaceable lives.
• Psalm 33:12 declares that the nation whose God is the Lord is blessed, grounding patriotism in faith.

Rich Baris, the pollster who correctly forecast the 2022 Republican midterm gains, now warns that many young men who once backed President Donald Trump have turned away.

Baris told viewers that the shift was driven by two main frustrations: the high cost of living and anger over what he called Israeli influence in American politics.

“They’re done,” he stated bluntly.

According to Baris, these voters felt their economic struggles were ignored while foreign interests appeared to shape U.S. policy.

He argued that the combination of rising prices and foreign-policy concerns pushed this demographic out of the Republican column in recent elections.

The pollster stressed that the change was not rooted in traditional party loyalty but in immediate household pressures and perceptions of Washington priorities.

Baris urged Republican strategists to recognize that younger voters are watching results, not rhetoric.
