     CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten  revealed stunning polls that showed even an “unpopular” Donald Trump could squash Democrats at the voting booth – calling it a “major wake-up moment” for the president’s rival party.  The liberal media are helping Dems spread lies.

     “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 moment for Democrats,” Enten said.  “When you match Donald Trump against his actual competition, Donald Trump comes out ahead…and that is why Democrats, in fact, cannot count their chickens just yet, because those eggs have not cracked at this particular moment,” he continued.

     According to CNN polling, 45% of registered voters believe Trump is doing a better job in the White House than former vice president Kamala Harris would have, compared to just 43% who believe the same of Harris. Trump’s lead falls within the survey’s margin of error.  urveys released from CBS, ABC and The Washington Post, NBC, CNN and The New York Times showed Trump’s favorability plummet – with one claiming he has the lowest ratings at the start of a presidential term since World War II.

    His sweeping tariffs, which economists have warned could reheat inflation and even trigger a recession, have been a particular sore spot. Nearly 90% of US adults said they believe the taxes will increase prices for American consumers, according to a new Gallup poll.  But Enten argued that Trump’s unfavorable ratings don’t look nearly as drastic when viewed side-by-side with Democrats in office.
