NextImg:CNN's Harry Enten: Republicans Have Big Leads on the Democrats On the Top Three Issues Going Into the Midterms

From Matt Margolis, Democrats may not get the usual midterm win.

[Excitable CNN Poll Dweeb Harry Enten] explained that polls showing Trump underwater don't mean diddly squat because Democrats are still losing badly on the issues that matter most to voters. "At this particular point, the Democrats are the New Orleans Saints of political parties," Enten quipped. "What are we talking about? Trust the Dems or GOP more on the economy. Who leads on the economy? Republicans by seven. Immigration? Republicans by 13. How about crime? A big issue for Donald Trump and the Republicans. Look at that: Lead by 22 points."

That's not a statistical blip--it's a crushing advantage on all the top issues heading into the 2026 midterms. Enten warned Democrats not to assume Trump's poll numbers would save them from their own failures. "At this particular point, it's the Republicans who are running with the ball on the top issues, the economy, immigration, and crime," he said.

Bolduan then pressed Enten to compare today's numbers with the last time Republicans took control of the House. Enten's answer was devastating. "The GOP is more trusted than the Dems on the economy. It was 12 points in 2022," he explained. "Slight, slight decline in that lead, but still seven points. How about immigration? It was Republicans by three back in 2022. Look at this: the Republican lead's actually gone up by 10 points!"

"What are you doing, Democrats? My goodness gracious!" Enten said. "And on crime, the Republicans were up by 13, and now they're up by 22."

And note this doesn't take into account the extra five seats the GOP will probably pick up in Texas, nor the five seats the GOP will probably pick up in Florida (if DeSantis pulls the trigger), nor the extra few seats they'll pick up in Missouri and Ohio.
