CNN’s Senior Data Reporter, Harry Enten, shared that the love GOP voters have for President Trump is ‘record breaking’ and he is ‘more beloved’ than any other GOP President.
Enten: Okay, so we’re going to look at the strongly approved number. So this isn’t just Republicans who like Donald Trump. This is Republicans who love Donald Trump, and he’s up like a rocket.
Look at this. In July 2017, the strongly approved was 53%. That’s pretty good. But look at where he is now! 63% of Republicans strongly approve of the job that Donald Trump is doing about five months into his presidency.
Republicans love Donald Trump the way the Americans love Disney World. The bottom line is 63%, that is a huge, huge base. Of course, it’s just part of a Republican base in which about 90% of them overall approve of him, including the somewhat approves as well.
CNN reporter: Every politician would like this number here, especially to see it go up. How about compared to other presidents who were Republicans?
Enten: Yeah, it’s history-making. It’s history-making.
What are we talking about here? So why don’t we look back? We have all the presidents, Republican presidents, going back over the last 35, 36, 37 years. What are we talking about? GOP who strongly approved five months in.
Look at this. George Bush, 41, 46%, Bush, 43, 59%. You see Trump, the first term, 53%. But look at this, 63%. He beats all the other Republicans on the board here.
I was looking even back since Reagan. And get this, Donald Trump beats Ronald Reagan when it comes to the strongly approved five months. And of course, Reagan was coming off that high after that assassination attempt.
So the bottom line is Donald Trump is making history with the Republican base. He is more beloved by this Republican base than any Republican base loved any GOP President five months.
It is history-making.
CNN reporter: It is a striking number. Till is stepping down, stepping aside after President Trump threatened to primary him. The question is, how effective is Trump’s endorsement? We know it can hurt, but how effective is it?
Enten: Yeah, okay. The bottom line is, if you’re a Republican lawmaker, you see this 63%, you say, ‘My goodness gracious,’ you do not want to go against Donald Trump because the Republican base is with Donald Trump.
It’s not It’s just a polling. We actually have the data to show that the Republican base is with Donald Trump. The times Trump endorsed these, won the GOP primary for governor and congressional races.
Look at this, 2024, 96%, 2022, 95%, 2020, 98%. The bottom line is this, 95% plus of the time, the Trump-endorsed candidate wins in GOP primaries. Even in the cases where Donald Trump endorses a challenger to an incumbent, the majority of time, that challenger wins.
So Donald Trump is a winner in Republican primaries.
You go against Donald Trump to quote the movie Good Burger, ‘you go in the grinder.’
Donald Trump is the key nugget. His endorsement is the key nugget in a GOP primary because he’s historically, strongly popular with the GOP base.
Watch:
GOP voters love for Trump is record breaking. His strong approval (63%) is up like a rocket from term 1 (53%).
It’s higher than any GOP prez on record at this pt.
95%+ of those Trump endorses win primaries. When you mess with Trump, you go in the grinder to quote Good Burger. pic.twitter.com/1Op7Wjq479
