CNN Data Chief Hits Trump With Some 'Terrible, Terrible, Terrible' New Numbers

CNN data chief Harry Enten said President Donald Trump’s signature “big, booty full bill” is historically unpopular with the American public.

“They think it’s awful. They think it’s horrible,” he told the network’s Omar Jimenez on Sunday. “And, to quote our colleague Charles Barkley, ‘terrible, terrible, terrible.’”

Enten shared five recent polls that show the bill is underwater by between 19 and 29 points.

“The American public at this particular point hate, hate, hate the ‘big, beautiful bill,’” he said. “As far as they’re concerned, it’s not a ‘big, beautiful bill,’ it’s a big, bad bill.”

Poll after poll about major issues often seem to be on favoring our side, reasonable gun control, abortion, and so on.

That's when it matters.

But also when it was passed the ACA was deeply unpopular, but a few years later a plurality approved of it and the most recent polling says a majority now approve of it.

The wealthy are never contacted by pollsters, they're only called by elected representatives begging for money. Political contributions are the only polling data that matter.

the incentive is to push through what you can when you can. Biden managing to get multiple pieces of major legislation through I think is going to be an outlier for a while. Trump 1 only got the tax cut through.

NO HE DOESN'T. HE COULD CARE LESS. HIS NUMBERS COULD BE ZERO AND HE WOULDN'T CARE. HE'S NOT RUNNING FOR RE-ELECTION. HE'S MAKING MONEY HAND OVER FIST & HIS AZZ IS SHINY WITH SPIT.
