Suburbanites Embrace Anti-Trump Resistance

MONTCLAIR, N.J. (AP) — A growing faction of concerned citizens across America’s suburbs are positioned on the front lines of the anti-Trump resistance. They are voters who are often wealthier and more educated than average Americans — and they historically tended to prefer Republicans. But now, on the eve of the 2026 midterm elections, many suburbanites are energized to fight President Donald Trump and his party. Suburbanites will be especially active at this weekend’s “No Kings” protests against Trump. Few areas illustrate the upside-down politics of the Trump era more than the nation’s suburbs, which may ultimately decide the balance of power in Washington for the president’s final two years in office.
