Donald Trump is tanking in the polls when it comes to his signature issue, according to an expert on Saturday.
CNN data analyst Harry Enten used polling data over the weekend to show how Trump has fallen in the minds of voters when it comes to his major tariffs.
Asked if voters' opinions had "changed on tariffs since Trump was elected," Enten said, "Yeah, I would say absolutely."
"I'll tell you, Donald Trump and his tariff plan is struggling in the minds of the American public, the way that Arch Manning struggled today in Columbus, Ohio," Enten added. "What are we talking about here? Well, let's take a look. Okay. New tariffs on imported goods. You know, back in November of 2024, when Donald Trump was elected, of course, for a second time, 52% favored that beat the 48% who opposed it."
Then he compared those numbers to "where we are today."
"The opposition is through the roof. Now, 60%, 60%. We're talking about 3/5 of Americans oppose the new tariffs, oppose them, compared to just 40% who favor it," Enten said. "So we went from plurality majority favor to now plurality majority oppose. Americans have gotten a taste of the tariffs, and what is on their tongues they do not like. They are spitting it out."
