CNN data analyst Harry Enten highlights a sharp drop in Donald Trump’s support among men under 30, with his economy rating for that group turning from a modest lead in 2024 to a deep negative now (around -55 to -59). He cites broader youth-economic pessimism—weighing on homeownership and job optimism—alongside waning support on foreign policy and other demographics, suggesting rising headwinds for Trump ahead of midterm elections.
CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten highlighted that Donald Trump has been underwater in every poll for 413 consecutive days, with no poll since March 29, 2025 showing a positive net approval rating. He ties this slide to Trump’s stance on the Iran war and rising gas prices, citing a CNN/SSRS poll where only 8% see a positive effect from the Iran conflict while 75% view it negatively, and 76% say the cost of living is their top economic problem. Enten argues the second-term dynamics haven’t shifted voters’ views despite various political events.
CNN analyst Harry Enten says new polling shows Americans blame the economy for Trump’s presidency as energy costs rise amid tensions with Iran, with Trump’s net approval on the economy dropping to -40 and independents wounding support, while Gallup finds more Americans feel worse off financially—a combination that could threaten Republicans in the upcoming midterms.
CNN’s Harry Enten described a 'really stunning' polling moment showing Trump’s own base now blames him for higher gas prices tied to the Iran war, with 77% of Americans saying he owns the mess, 55% of GOP members blaming him, and 64% saying the Iran conflict hasn’t been worth the higher costs.
CNN data guru Harry Enten says Donald Trump’s economic approval has collapsed to a net minus 32, the worst at this stage of any president, with overall disapproval at 62% eight weeks into his Iran-related war; gas prices and inflation have risen, independents’ approval of his economy has cratered, and the worsening numbers threaten Republicans ahead of the midterms, even as Biden’s numbers remain comparatively better on the economy.
CNN data guru Harry Enten described Donald Trump’s polling as 'downright atrocious,' noting an overall approval around 39%, a steep drop on the economy (about a 40-point slide to -32) and independent voters swinging hard against him (roughly -55). The piece also cites a Fox News poll showing Democrats ahead on handling the economy, and suggests that if these trends hold, Republicans could lose the House and possibly the Senate in upcoming elections.
