Donald Trump Eliminates Democrats' Polling Advantage in Key Area
- Recent polling from May 2025 indicates that the Republican Party, under the influence of President Trump’s economic messaging, has effectively closed the gap with the Democrats as the party seen as best representing middle-class economic interests.
- This shift follows years of declining Democratic advantage dating back to a 23-point lead in 1989, narrowing to nearly a tie today, amid economic uncertainty and key events like tariff changes and war negotiations.
- Additional polls reveal voters remain worried about a recession and distrust Trump on the economy, yet Republican messaging gains traction, with the GOP holding up to a 12-point advantage on economic plans in recent surveys.

- The erosion of Democratic middle-class support suggests challenges ahead for the party, especially in red states Trump won decisively, shaping competitive 2026 Senate races with potential implications for control of the chamber.
