Polls show a Democratic 'blue wave' forming days before 2026 midterms

Guardian analysis frames midterms as referendum on Trump

The Guardian lays out polling (Reuters/Ipsos: Democrats 47%–36% on the generic ballot, Trump at 32% approval) and argues Trump's broken promises, the Epstein files, the Iran war, living costs and perceived self-enrichment have eroded his coalition ahead of races where Republicans hold the House 218–214 and the Senate 53–47.
