It's a Numbers Game: Trump’s Biggest 2026 Problem? Working-Class Voters Are Losing Patience
from The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show · host iHeartPodcasts
Is Donald Trump facing a growing political problem heading into the 2026 midterm elections? On this episode of It's a Numbers Game, Ryan Girdusky breaks down new polling data showing a surprising shift among working-class white voters—the backbone of the modern Republican coalition. While Democrats continue to struggle nationally, warning signs are emerging for Republicans as inflation, food prices, gas prices, and economic concerns weigh heavily on voters. Ryan analyzes why Trump's strongest supporters are growing frustrated, what recent polling reveals about the GOP's position heading into 2026, and why the economy—not immigration—may ultimately determine control of Congress. He also examines House redistricting, generic ballot trends, the impact of the Iran peace deal, and whether Democrats are actually positioned for a major comeback.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
