New Polling Among Trump's Gen Z Bro Fan Base Indicates Trouble Ahead for his Dystopian Delusions [1]

Raw Story has an interesting piece up about recent polling data from Biden’s “Gen Z Whisperer,” John Della Volpe (as reported by the paywalled Puck News reporter Peter Hamby) indicating that the young male voters who voted for Trump last November in unprecedented numbers may be having some serious second thoughts about that support, now that reality is intruding on their delusional dreams of a brave new economic order:
Hamby recently spoke with pollster John Della Volpe to discuss new data he'd found showing real deterioration among a group of voters who backed him because they believed he would be better for the economy than Vice President Kamala Harris.
..
"In January, 62 percent of men under 30 approved of Trump’s handling of the economy," writes Hamby. "Now, just 48 percent approve—a drop of 14 points in just one month. On handling inflation, Trump has taken a 15-point hit, dropping from 55 percent approval before the inauguration to just 40 percent today. And those downward trends are from Della Volpe’s February poll, which was in the field two weeks ago—before multiple news cycles about nagging inflation, before tariffs sent the markets spiraling, before egg prices hit an all-time record, and before Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies took a massive hit."
The pollster tells Hamby that if Trump doesn't start lowering the cost of living quickly, then "even his strongest backers may conclude he can’t deliver.”
