🚨 BREAKING: Trump Faces Rising Political Pressure as Impeachment Talk Surges in Senate New polling shows Trump’s support slipping sharply among key non-college voters — a group central to his past victories — fueling concerns for Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. At the same time, some Senate Democrats are openly discussing impeachment again, especially in light of debate over Trump’s military action in Venezuela and questions about congressional approval. While Republicans control Congress now, Democrats signal they could pursue impeachment if they regain power in 2026, setting up a pivotal political showdown. 👉 Read the full story 👇
In a recent interview with NBC News, President Donald Trump took full ownership of the state of the U.S. economy, declaring, “I’m very proud of it.” The statement came as new polling suggests many voters are less enthusiastic about current economic conditions than the president himself.
The divergence between Trump’s optimism and voter sentiment is becoming politically significant — especially as analysts point to potential cracks in the coalition that powered his previous electoral victories.
A Shift Among Non-College Voters
For years, Trump’s political strength has rested heavily on voters without a college degree. In the 2024 election, he carried that group by a commanding margin, winning them by roughly 14 points.
Now, according to recent polling analysis highlighted by CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten, Trump’s standing with those same voters has shifted dramatically. His net approval rating among non-college voters has fallen into negative territory — representing an estimated 20-plus-point swing from his prior electoral advantage.
That movement could have major implications for 2026.
When asked how non-college voters are leaning in congressional preference polling, early data suggests Republicans’ once-solid advantage with the group has narrowed considerably. While the GOP previously held a double-digit edge among these voters, that lead now appears far smaller.
Trump’s embrace of economic performance marks a strategic shift. Historically, presidents have been cautious about tying themselves too closely to stock market milestones or short-term economic metrics. While markets recently hit record highs, including the Dow reaching a major benchmark, economic sentiment among working- and middle-class voters appears more mixed.
Economic approval ratings often serve as a leading indicator of political vulnerability. If voters feel uncertain about inflation, wages, or job stability — regardless of broader macroeconomic gains — that sentiment can translate into midterm consequences.
Impeachment Talk Returns to the Forefront
Layered onto these polling trends is renewed impeachment rhetoric from Democratic lawmakers.
Several Senate Democrats, including prominent leadership figures, have publicly argued that aspects of Trump’s recent conduct — particularly regarding executive authority and foreign policy actions — warrant serious scrutiny. While no formal impeachment trial is currently scheduled, House Democrats have introduced multiple resolutions outlining alleged abuses of power and constitutional violations.
