‘Are you kidding me?’ CNN analyst expresses disbelief over Democrats’ loss of critical demographic

‘Are you kidding me?’ CNN analyst expresses disbelief over Democrats’ loss of critical demographic

Democrats lost the White House and the U.S. Senate in November and were unable to make sufficient headway in the House to make their hysterical opposition to Republican initiatives insurmountable. In the months since, they have continued losing in various ways, especially in the way of public confidence.

The disapproval rating for the party as a whole was 58.3% as of May 25, according to polling by the Economist and YouGov. A new CNN survey conducted by SSRS and published June 1 revealed that only 16% of Americans figure the party’s leaders as strong and only 19% of respondents indicated the party was capable of getting things done.

The Democratic Party has apparently lost a lot more than face and confidence — it no longer has a stranglehold on the middle class, a critical demographic that accounts for roughly half the electoral pie.

CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten built up to this revelation on Monday, noting first that when it comes to the economy, Americans just trust Republicans more.

When asked which political party’s views were closer to their own on the economy, 38% of respondents said the Republican Party in a CNN survey. Thirty-one percent said the Democrats’ views were representative.

“How is that possible, Democrats? How is that possible after all the recession fears? After the stock markets been doing all of this?” said an exasperated Enten, simulating market ups and downs with his hand. “After all the tariffs that Americans are against? And Republicans still hold an eight-point lead on the economy — are you kidding me?”

CNN talking head Kate Bolduan appeared keen for Enten to paint a silver lining on this bad news for Democrats, but he was unable to deliver. Instead, Enten noted that other polling data similarly suggests Americans regard the GOP as the party with the better economic plan.

‘Donald Trump and the Republican Party have taken that mantle away.’

“The Republicans still hold an advantage on the all-important key issue of the day,” said Enten. “And that is the reason why, even if Donald Trump’s approval ratings are a little bit lower than they used to be, Republicans are not out of the ballgame because they still have a clear advantage on the economy.”

Enten was not finished burdening Bolduan with bad news for Democrats.

He suggested that Democrats have for decades — since at least 1989 — held a significant, double-digit advantage over Republicans with the middle class. Enten noted, however, that the Democratic Party’s advantage had slipped in recent years to a negligible lead, “well within the margin of error.”

“Now, in our latest CNN poll, among registered voters, ‘which is the party of the middle class?’ It is tied,” said Enten. “This, I think, speaks to Democratic ills more than anything else. They have traditionally been the party of the middle class. No more. Donald Trump and the Republican Party have taken that mantle away.”

‘A key advantage for Democrats historically has gone Adios amigos.’

According to a 2024 Gallup poll, 54% of Americans identify as part of the middle class.

There are numerous factors at play here besides former President Joe Biden’s disastrous time in the White House, a few of which were highlighted by the New York Times earlier this year.

The Times noted that while Democrats rushed to pin their estrangement from the working and middle classes on the party’s embrace of gender ideology and woke policies, Democratic leaders’ prioritization of consumers over workers; promotion of job-killing climate and globalist initiatives; and shift away from unions hurt the relationship.

When asked which was the party of the middle class, 34% of respondents in the CNN survey said the Democratic Party, 32% said the Republican Party, and 33% said neither party.

“A key advantage for Democrats historically has gone adios amigos,” said Enten. “And now there is no party that is the party of the middle class. Republicans have completely closed the gap.”
