CNN data analyst Harry Enten just delivered some bad news for Democrats, revealing that Republicans have a considerable advantage heading towards the 2026 midterms because they are more trusted on a variety of issues.

On certain issues like immigration and crime, the GOP leads Democrats by double digits.

Democrats have no one but themselves to blame for this. Since the 2024 election, they have offered the American people nothing more than constant outrage and protests. They are not bringing any ideas or plans to the table.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

ENTEN: Yes, what are we seeing? You know, Donald Trump being underwater, Democrats and all this guarantees us we’re going to fly high in the midterms. Let me tell you, this guarantees you nothing. Nothing. Because at this particular point, the Democrats are the New Orleans Saints of political parties.

What are we talking about? Trust the Dems or GOP more on the economy? Who leads on the economy? Republicans by seven. Immigration, Republicans by 13. How about crime, a big issue for Donald Trump and the Republicans. Look at that, lead by 22 points.

So, the bottom line is this, at this particular point, the ball may be on the ground, but the Democrats have not picked up the ball and running with it. If anything, at this particular point, it’s the Republicans who are running with the ball on the top issues, the economy, immigration and crime.

KATE BOLDUAN, CNN ANCHOR: Compare — give some context on this. Compare this when Republicans last took the House.

ENTEN: Yes, let’s compare it back to 2022. I think this kind of gives away the game right here. OK, the GOP is more trusted than the Dems on the economy. It was 12 points in 2022. Slight, slight decline in that lead, but still seven points. How about immigration. It was Republicans by three back in 2022. Look at this. The Republican lead has actually gone up by ten points. What are you doing, Democrats? My goodness gracious. And on crime, the Republicans were up by 13 and now they’re up by 22. The lead again expanding by nearly double digits.

So, whatever Democrats are doing, it ain’t working, Kate. It ain’t working. Republicans have the lead on all three issues.
