CNN’s Harry Enten Says Data Shows Government Shutdown Hasn’t Significantly Affected Trump’s Support

Trump’s net approval rating rose by one point during the shutdown as fewer Americans blame him, with 48% attributing blame compared to 61% in 2018-19, analyst Harry Enten said.

  • On Monday, CNN's chief data analyst Harry Enten flagged the ongoing government shutdown hasn't eaten into President Donald Trump's support, with net approval up by one point.
  • During the 2018-19 government shutdown, Trump's net approval rating fell three points early in that shutdown before declining further, while Enten said this shutdown is a different world for Trump.
  • Facing a frozen legislative process, Trump is largely governing through executive orders, and the shutdown is not hurting him at this stage.
  • Analysts say the blame contest explains limited pressure, as Harry Enten argued the outcome hinges on the blame game rather than immediate popular pressure to end the shutdown.
