'Zero chance' GOP keeps the House if Trump can't turn his polling around: CNN analyst

According to CNN data analyst Harry Enten, House Republicans should be exceedingly alarmed at Donald Trump's "terrible" new polling numbers unless they want to be out of a job after the 2026 midterms.

Sitting on the "Inside Politics" panel with host Jessica Dean, Enten insisted an approval number like Trump's current 41 percent will "doom" GOP lawmakers.

Dean prompted her CNN colleague with, "In these midterms, it's going to be these House, all House members that are going to be on the ballot. iI's going to be these congressional members that are going to have to face the consequences and Trump, Harry, he's not going to have to."

"He's not going to have to," Enten agreed. " But I'll tell you, there is pretty much zero chance, if Donald Trump's approval rating is 41 percent in November of 2026, the Republicans have any shot of holding the House of Representatives."

He emphasized, "There is no, I repeat, there is no precedent for a president's approval rating being as low as Donald Trump's is right now and then his party holding on to the House in the midterm elections."

"We were talking about it yesterday," he recalled. "I mean, when you look at approval ratings this low, this early, you look at where the generic ballot is this low this early, that usually spells doom for the president's party when it comes to midterm elections."
