CNN data analyst Harry Enten had some more bad news for Democrats who continue to claim that President Donald Trump is suffering from low poll numbers.

The analyst said that even as the president’s approval numbers have declined somewhat since taking office, he continues to trounce his Democratic rivals.

Enten reviewed a new CNN poll that showed 45 percent of the voters they questioned still believe that Trump is doing a better job than they believe former Vice President Kamala Harris would have done had she won. In comparison, 43 percent think that she would have done a better job, and 12 percent believe that they would be the same.

“It’s not just about regretting that vote. It’s literally saying who would be doing the better job right now? And Trump continues to score a higher percentage of the vote than Kamala Harris. This looks a heck of a lot like the election result. We have just seen this in poll after poll after poll, despite the fact that Trump’s favorable ratings aren’t too hot to trot when he’s matched up against who he was matched up against in 2024. He still, across the polls, scores a higher percentage than Kamala Harris,” Enten said.

“The bottom line is when you look at Donald Trump in a vacuum, it’s one thing, but when you actually match him up against folks in the real world, all of a sudden his numbers look considerably better. And when you match him up against his main competition at this point, Democrats in Congress, he is more trusted on the main problems facing the United States right now. In fact, it’s not even close. It’s an eight-point advantage, which in this politics, well, that’s a wide ocean,” he said.

“If Democrats think that at this particular point, just because Donald Trump is unpopular, that they’re going to run away with it like a Heisman trophy winner, that is not necessarily the case. These numbers should be a major wake-up call for Democrats, despite Donald Trump’s unpopularity in the polls,” the data analyst said.

“When you actually go up against him and you put Democrats’ names against him, when you put Republicans as a whole up against him, Republicans and Donald Trump do considerably better. And that is why Democrats, in fact, cannot count their chickens just yet because those eggs have not cracked at this particular moment,” he said.
