CNN data analyst Harry Enten dropped more bad news on Democrats still struggling to remain relevant amid record-low approval ratings following President Donald Trump’s crushing victory and Republicans’ takeover of the House and Senate. In a segment on Thursday, Enten said that the Democrat-and-left-wing-media-driven narrative that a wide and growing number of Trump voters are regretting their choice just isn’t true.
“So, talking about the tariffs. Obviously over the last several weeks we’ve seen Donald Trump, the president, losing support among voters writ large over the tariffs. His numbers on the economy are going south. He’s hemorrhaging support among independents on the economy. But what about Trump voters? How do they feel about all this? One man can answer that question. He just happens to be the one man standing beside me right now. CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten. Let’s talk about Trump voters and how they feel. Do they regret their vote?” host John Berman said — though Trump’s overall approval ratings remain high.
“I mean, this is the big question, right? I hear all these stories, all these articles, all the Trump voters, they regret what they did back in 2024. I’m here to tell you, uh-uh, very few of them regret what they did back in 2024. What are we talking about? Trump voters looking back at 2024. We got a new poll out. The poll was conducted this month. What percentage would change their vote to a different candidate? We’re talking just 2 percent, just 2 percent. That’s not even a wide spot on the road,” Enten explained.
“And then there’s this additional 1 percent who say they would rather not vote. We’re talking overall under 5 percent might or would have changed their vote, Donald Trump voters back in 2024. And then you ask, OK, the same question to Kamala Harris voters. And it turns out the numbers are rather similar. So, if there was a repeat, if folks got to be able to redo their vote that they had back in 2024, would the result be any different? I doubt it would be. I doubt it would be or it would still be extremely close,” he said, adding: “The bottom line is, for all this talk of Trump voters regretting their vote, in the numbers, it really just doesn’t show up, John.”
