CNN Analyst Details 'Absolute Collapse' of Trump Support
CNN analyst Harry Enten reported Monday that President Donald Trump is experiencing a significant drop in approval ratings among Republican-leaning independent voters compared to his first term.

Support for President Donald Trump is experiencing a sharp decline among Republican-leaning independent voters, a demographic described as a core constituency. CNN analyst Harry Enten revealed on Monday that the president's backing within this specific group is "collapsing."[1][2]
While analyzing the polling data, Enten posed the question of who exactly is responsible for dragging down the president's overall approval rating. He answered by pointing directly to this demographic, noting, "We are talking about a very important bloc for the president of the United States. That is, Republican leaning independents."[1][2]
The current figures represent a stark contrast to the president's historical performance with this same group of voters. Enten pointed out that at this exact point during his first term in office, Trump enjoyed a robust 73 percent support rate from this core constituency.[1][2]
That previous high level of backing has since changed dramatically. Characterizing the recent downward shift among these crucial independent voters, Enten explained the trajectory by stating, "Down he goes, an absolute collapse."[1][2]
