KEY DEMOGRAPHIC THAT HELPED PROPEL POS trump TO 2024 VICTORY ABANDONS trump & GOP Key demographic that helped propel Trump to victory in 2024 now fleeing GOP Story by Alex Henderson • 17h • 2 min read Donald Trump has run for president four times, starting with his short-lived Reform Party campaign in 2000. And his fourth campaign was his most successful, marking the first time he won the popular vote. 2024 was a close election, not the "landslide" Trump claims it was. But he won the national popular vote by roughly 1.5 percent, and a key factor in that victory was his ability to reach a wider range of voters than in 2020. Trump not only rallied his hardcore MAGA base last year, but also, made a concerted effort to reach out to Latinos, Gen-Z, independents, and the Manosphere.

But according to the Herald's Brendan Rascius, polls are showing his approval among Latinos falling. In an article published on August 19, Rascius cites polling data from Reuters/Ipsos poll, The Hill and Gallup and explains, "Conducted over six days in August, the (Reuters/Ipsos) poll found 40 percent of respondents approve of Trump's job performance so far. This figure, while the lowest recorded since Trump's inauguration, is unchanged from July. But it is down 7 points from January, when a record-high 47 percent of Americans approved of Trump."

But now, according to Rascius, "About one-third of Hispanic respondents, 32 percent, said they approved of Trump's job performance, on par with a previous low recorded this year. By comparison, the president's approval rating among Hispanic adults stood at 34 percent in April and 37 percent in January, marking a 5-point decline, according to The Hill."
