President Donald Trump may be stepping into a “tough room” while attending the G7 Summit in Canada on Monday, according to CNN’s Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten.
“This title slide says it all,” Enten said, “‘Why Trump faces a tough room at the G7’ — that is because the countries outside the U.S., who are part of the G7, those folks are not big fans of Donald Trump, not big fans at all.”
Analyzing a Pew Institute Research poll, which asked citizens of other countries if they think Trump will ‘do the right thing’ when it comes to world affairs, the polls claim it’s a resounding no.
“All these numbers are at least 60% or above [of people have no confidence in Donald Trump doing the right thing]. You can start off here at the bottom, Japan 61%, The UK 62%.” Enten said, “You go to that next row, Italy 68%. We're getting higher and higher and higher. Canada 77%, and finally France 78%.”
Enten added, “81% of Germans have no confidence that Donald Trump will do the right thing when it comes to world affairs. We're looking at a super majority in all six of these G7 countries besides the U.S., they do not like Donald Trump, [and] they have no confidence in him to do the right thing when it comes to world affairs.
The data analyst added, “I think that will inform some of the leaders there in those countries going into this G7 summit with Donald Trump, and again, he's just going to face a tough room because those folks in those countries, they don't really like Donald Trump.”
CNN Anchor Sara Sidner asked Enten if Canadians want a trade “deal with Trump?”
Enten claimed this “is the number that kind of says it all. We're talking about allies of the United States here. No ally has been closer to us over the years than Canada has been.”
Looking at a poll asking if Canadians want to reduce their reliance on the U.S. as a trade partner. Enten said, “Look at this — 91% say that, yes, they, in fact, that Canadians should in fact reduce reliance on the U.S. as a trade partner.”
“You never see numbers that high,” Enten said, “I'm laughing because it's just unprecedented compared to just 9% who disagree. That's about the percentage of Americans who believe we faked the moon landing."
