Trump supporters are revealing the ‘red line’ that would make them stop supporting him and people say it’s ‘disturbing’

President Donald Trump’s approval ratings have taken a hit just eight months into his second term. Recent polling from Emerson College shows that 46% of Americans disapprove of his leadership, while 45% approve, and 9% remain undecided.

The same poll revealed that 45% of participants believe the country is headed in the wrong direction. A separate Quinnipiac University poll reported even lower numbers, with just 38% approving of Trump’s performance — the lowest rating seen in decades.

In light of these numbers, discussions have sparked online about what might cause Trump supporters to withdraw their backing. A Reddit thread posed the question: “What is a red line that would make you stop supporting Trump?”

One Redditor said their father, a staunch Trump supporter, would lose faith if cuts to Medicaid and Social Security went through. This suggests that even core supporters have limits when it comes to domestic policy.

Another commenter said their parents’ support would end only if Trump embraced liberal or socialist policies like nationalized healthcare, wealth taxes, or media regulation — things they view as threats to America.

A former Trump voter shared that January 6th marked their breaking point. Witnessing the Capitol riot led them to reject Trump and eventually adopt moderate Democratic views.

Some supporters reportedly turned away from Trump after a controversial February meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, citing disappointment in his handling of international affairs.
