Summary

CNN’s Harry Enten reveals a dramatic collapse in President Trump’s approval ratings, underscoring the public’s growing rejection of his administration’s disastrous policies, especially among independents and those suffering under unchecked inflation.

CNN’s senior data analyst Harry Enten delivered a scathing report on President Donald Trump’s nosediving approval ratings during a recent segment on CNN News Central. Enten underscored that Trump is enduring his 'worst 10-day period' in polling during his second term, a clear verdict on the administration’s regressive agenda.

Enten cited five November polls, all painting a bleak picture for Trump, with net approval ratings ranging from -14 to -26 points. Even the most generous poll leaves Trump 14 points underwater, a testament to the public’s mounting disillusionment.

Two core failures are driving this collapse. First, Trump’s support among independent voters has cratered. Enten highlighted that Trump’s net approval among independents plummeted from -4 in January to an abysmal -43 in November. Being 43 points underwater with independents signals a wholesale rejection of Trump’s divisive politics.

Second, the administration’s mishandling of inflation has fueled widespread anger. Between January and November, Trump’s net approval on inflation plunged from +3 to -37, a staggering 40-point drop. Enten noted that this sharp decline reflects the real pain working families are feeling as costs soar and Trump’s policies fail to deliver relief.

These polling trends reveal the deepening crisis facing the Republican Party as Trump’s toxic brand threatens their prospects in the upcoming midterm elections. With key voter groups turning away, the GOP faces a reckoning for enabling Trump’s failed leadership.
