NextImg:CNN Data Reporter Warns Trump Of 1 Issue Already Threatening To 'Crush' His Presidency
LOADINGERROR LOADING

President Donald Trump’s honeymoon period with the voters could be over soon ― and it could be due to the same factor that sank President Joe Biden, CNN data reporter Harry Enten warned on Thursday.

“Let me be perfectly clear: Inflation crushed the Joe Biden presidency, it ate it alive,” he said. “If Donald Trump is not careful, inflation will crush his presidency and eat it alive, because that is where Americans want him to be focused. They want him focused on fixing the inflation crisis, the inflation problem, and bringing prices down.”

The latest polling shows that 55 percent of voters want Trump to focus on either inflation or the economy in general.

“It doesn’t matter what poll you look at,” Enten said. “It is the economy, stupid.”

However, two-thirds of voters say he’s not focused on that potentially crushing factor, including 48% of Republicans.

“They believe that Donald Trump is not keeping his eyes on the prize,” Enten said.

He also warned that voters have noticed that the economy hasn’t improved.

While 49% rated the economy as excellent or good in November 2020, that number dropped to a dismal 32% in November 2024.

Since then, it’s fallen even further: Enten said that today, just 27% ― barely one in four voters ― called the economy excellent or good.

“If this number does not go up, Donald Trump’s approval rating will go down,” he said. “I started this segment by saying that inflation ate the Joe Biden presidency alive, it crushed it. If these numbers remain the same, inflation will do the exact same thing to Donald Trump’s second term. It will eat it alive. It will crush it.”
