Enten: Democrats Are Underperforming, "Down On Their Knees" Begging For Trump To Make Midterms About Him

CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten breaks down why Democrats are eager for President Trump to become the central issue of the 2026 midterms.

JOHN BERMAN, CNN ANCHOR: President Trump has made crystal clear he wants these midterm elections to be about him. You know who else thinks that? Democrats want the midterm elections to be all about him. Who might it be better for?

With us now, CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten.

OK, what do -- what do we think? Should the election, should Republicans want the election to be all about President Trump?

HARRY ENTEN, CNN CHIEF DATA ANALYST: Democrats are down on their knees. They're begging, please, please, please allow this election to be about Donald John Trump. Because if you could see this right now, Republicans are actually outperforming President Trump.

Look at that, choose Republicans for House, you get 41 percent of the electorate who say that. Approval of President Trump. He's only at 37 percent. So, right now, Democrats are actually underperforming where they should be, given where President Trump's popularity is and Republicans are overperforming. Democrats are begging, please, President Trump, get involved in these midterm fights.

Donald Dems are why Deep State has to steal elections.

Including in supposedly blue cities and states.

You’re welcome.

Anti-Trump is an easier sale than kill babies, castrate children and kill all white people especially Jews.

We need Trump to be involved because these races will be largely determined on turnout. If our side doesn’t get motivated, we will lose badly. And Trump has a lot of supporters who are low-propensity voters who normally don’t get out in midterms. The ones who are voting because they hate Trump are already very revved up to go vote Dem. (Of course, there are some specific races Trump needs to stay away from because of local political preferences, but I’m sure he already knows that.)

The American culture has devolved so much that so many “Americans” are supporting/electing communists/muzzoids.

Barack Hussein Obamatollah began this massive slide into what we see today.
