Poll shows stark divides among white voters by gender

A recent NBC News poll shows significant political divides among white voters, with gender and education playing major roles. In the 2024 presidential election, white voters accounted for about 71% of the electorate, a number that has decreased in recent years as the population becomes more diverse. The findings reveal two distinct groups among white voters. One group is made up of white men without college degrees, who largely support Trump and conservative policies. The other group consists of white women with college degrees, who tend to lean left and oppose Trump, especially on cultural issues. The poll shows a stark contrast in their views of Trump. While 69% of non-college white men view him positively, only 29% of college-educated white women feel the same way. This results in a significant 79-point gap between the two groups regarding their perception of the former president. In other news, Chief Justice John Roberts criticized calls from Trump and his supporters to impeach judges who have ruled against the administration. He emphasized that impeachment is not a suitable response to judicial decisions and that there are proper legal processes to address disagreements. This response came after Trump specifically called for the impeachment of a judge who blocked the deportation of Venezuelan migrants. Despite some lawmakers pushing for impeachments, historical precedent shows judges are typically removed for serious misconduct, not for their rulings.
