CNN Data Chief Spots This GOP ‘Illusion’ With Trump — And Its Consequences
HuffPost
Harry Enten turned to the president's "historically awful" polling numbers with one key voting demographic.
CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten on Monday revealed how President Donald Trump’s steady dip in polling could prove to hurt Republicans in next year’s midterms.
“If the House GOP is under any illusion that Donald Trump’s fall in the polls won’t bring them down as well, well, they are living on fantasy island,” Enten said in a segment with CNN’s John Berman.
Enten — who stressed the day before that there’s “no way to sugarcoat” Trump’s falling approval ratings — turned to recent polling from CNBC, The New York Times and Fox News showing that Democrats fare better against Republicans by an average of 4 percentage points on a generic congressional ballot.
He noted that the figures indicate a “tremendous shift” from November, when the House GOP won the popular vote by 2.7 percentage points.
Enten, when asked where the shift appears in the “most pronounced way,” pointed to polling from the Times showing Trump’s net favorability rating with independents sinking from -9 percentage points in October to -30 percentage points this month.
