1
I'm a reporter from the New York Times.
2
Can I talk to you? About? About? About politics.
3
I personally like to keep that personal business to myself.
4
I don't share my political views.
5
You guys are basically not — don't want to talk about your political views.
6
I'm understanding that correctly.
7
Yeah.
8
Pretty much, yes.
9
I'm in Michigan, a crucial state for control of Congress in the upcoming midterms.
10
And I'm trying to talk to young men here about their politics — a tricky subject.
11
Yeah, no, so I think we'll pass for now about politics.
12
You'll pass.
13
Two years ago, they swung hard for Donald Trump.
14
That was a surprise, because that age group used to lean left.
15
Do you lean more
16
Republican or Democrat?
17
Republican.
18
Probably more Republican.
19
But now, polls say that young voters are the most likely to be upset about the economy and the war in Iran.
20
I think I voted Trump.
21
I would take that back.
22
So I wanted to know, where were their heads now?
23
Were young men the future of MAGA?
24
Or were they the new swing voters?
25
OK, so your first election was the 2024 election.
26
What a way to get into it.
27
Yes.
28
Aaron is 20 and a student at Hope College, a small Christian college in West Michigan.
29
Everyone we spoke to was concerned about a backlash for speaking candidly about their political views.
30
We're only using their first names.
31
Can I ask how you voted in that election?
32
Uh, yeah.
33
I voted for Trump.
34
He was an outsider bringing energy into Washington.
35
We were going to have no new wars, that the border was going to be locked down,
36
that a lot of the stuff was going to change for the better.
37
How did you feel about the Democratic Party back then?
38
I felt excluded.
39
As a white man and a young man at that, But the message I kind of received is there's no place for you.
40
Where's your head at now with President Trump?
41
We're in a several -month conflict with Iran now that is raising gas prices.
42
We have U .S servicemen who I believe are kind of needlessly dying in this conflict.
43
Those kind of broken promises are going to stick in the mind of a lot of voters.
44
Aaron thinks the MAGA movement has run its course.
45
But he's still conservative, and he said he still might vote Republican.
46
That wasn't the case for the next guy I talked to.
47
His name was Nash, and I met him outside of 7 -Eleven in East Lansing.
48
That's where Michigan State University is, and tens of thousands of potential young voters.
49
You voted for President Trump in 2024.
50
Yep.
51
How are you seeing
52
President Trump now?
53
You know, he doesn't worry about people like us.
54
He makes us look foolish, I think, truly, in interviews and in the public eye.
55
Like, we just look stupid when he represents us.
56
Nash is 20, and like many of the young people we talk to, he really doesn't like the war in Iran or Israel's war in Gaza.
57
We're funding a country that murders thousands of children.
58
I think that we should stop bowing down to Israel and worry more about people here.
59
Nowadays, speaking out against this, people just say you're anti -Semitic, and it's silly.
60
It's a strong view that I heard over and over from young people upset with U .S support for Israel.
61
And it's pushed
62
Nash toward Democrats.
63
What about this election, this coming up in November?
64
Go Abdul.
65
I stand by that.
66
That's Abdul El -Sayed, the progressive
67
Democrat who's running for Senate here.
68
What do you like about Abdul?
69
I've heard him talk and agreed on things he's said just about, like, making, you know, government more for people instead of,
70
you know, the elite and stuff like that.
71
Nash's swing from voting for Trump to a progressive might seem like whiplash.
72
But polling shows a majority of young men now say they prefer
73
Democratic candidates over Republican ones.
74
That's a big change from 2024.
75
You know, there are tech ads and stuff on TV and they say, like, this guy's really far left.
76
He's too far left for Michigan.
77
You know, he's a Muslim.
78
Who cares if he's a Muslim, realistically?
79
I mean, if he stands on good things and you like the things he says,
80
then you should vote for him and not worry about his name.
81
When I left the college campuses, I met Jordan.
82
He was carrying trim for his baby daughter's room.
83
His biggest concern was the economy.
84
Take a grocery bill from 2020, 2018, and the same bill is three times the cost now, so that hurts.
85
Nearly 90 % of young people disapprove of Trump's handling of the cost of living.
86
That's the highest level of any age group.
87
Jordan voted for Trump in 2024.
88
I think you see this socialist movement because of how poorly thought of Trump is now.
89
And I don't know what to think of that.
90
Trump, of course, is not on a ballot.
91
But the midterms, in many ways, will be a referendum on his presidency.
92
Jordan is swinging away from Trump.
93
But to what is an open question.
94
Do you consider yourself Republican?
95
Yeah, probably.
96
I don't know.
97
I don't know if I consider myself conservative or Democrat right now, but it's a weird middle ground.
