President Donald Trump’s approval ratings are underwater across the board, and CNN’s Harry Enten said they potentially could get even worse.
The president has rarely enjoyed majority support across his two non-consecutive terms in office, but Enten told “CNN News Central” that Trump has spent more than nine months underwater.
“Trump’s negative net approval rating every single day since March 12, Trump has been in the red – negative,” Enten said. “That is days in a row, 281. He has spent more time underwater than Jacques Cousteau, for goodness sake. The bottom line is this the American people don’t like what Trump is doing, and they haven’t liked what Trump’s doing for a long period of time.”
“On what issues? All of them – all of them, all the key issues,” Enten added. “Because, take a look here: Trump’s negative approval rating, he’s underwater across the board. Immigration, a key issue for him, underwater by six points. Foreign policy, which has been one of his better issues, underwater by 14 points. Trade and tariffs, of course, this has been a key component of Trump’s presidency, underwater by 15 points. The economy, the reason Trump got elected to a second term, underwater by 16 points, and the Epstein case, which I think we’ll be talking a lot about going into the latter part of this week, underwater by 29 points. Negative, negative, negative, negative, negative. It’s just not any good for the president of United States.”
Those negative results could weigh down the Republican Party like an anchor in next year’s elections, Enten said.
“If history is any guide, it’s not a good one for you because take a look here,” he said. “Term two negative net approval ratings, at this point went positive by the midterm. Well, we have three examples: Richard Nixon, he was forced out of office. Of course, he never went positive. George W. Bush, he never saw positive territory again. Barack Obama earlier this century, he did not go positive by the midterm. We got the question mark for Donald Trump. But again, negative, negative, negative.”
“It’s just negative across the board for the president of the United states, he’s again going to have to break history,” Enten added. “He’s done it before. But he’s really going to have to do it if he really wants to give his Republican Party much of a chance come the 2026 midterms. Because if the numbers look like this and look like this, well, this will become another X.”
