Trump won South Carolina by 18 points in 2024, but his growing unpopularity fuels Democratic hopes
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
President Trump’s approval among South Carolina voters has weakened, fueling Democratic hopes of narrowing the 18-point Republican margin he carried in the 2024 election. The shift is notable because South Carolina has been a reliably Republican state, and even a modest swing could affect down-ballot races and national narratives. Democrats are pointing to the erosion as evidence that Trump’s coattails may be shortening ahead of future contests. Republicans, meanwhile, will be watching whether the decline is a temporary dip or a durable trend. The next test will be whether the state’s GOP candidates can hold their margins without Trump’s full strength at the top of the ticket.
