CNN Data Analyst Shreds "Trump Voter Regret" Narrative: Only 2% Would Switch Votes

CNN Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten poured cold water on the mainstream media
narrative that Trump voters �regret� their decision, revealing a new poll
showing just 2% of the president�s 2024 voters would �vote differently� if
given the chance.

Enten�s remarks came during a segment on �CNN News Central,� where he
presented findings from a University of Massachusetts Amherst/YouGov poll
published Monday

�I hear all these stories, all these articles, �All the Trump voters, they
regret what they did back in 2024.� I�m here to tell you, �Uh uh.� Very few
of them regret what they did back in 2024,� Enten explained during his
segment.

He emphasized the minimal regret among Trump supporters, saying, �What
percentage would change their vote to a different candidate? We�re talking
just 2%. Just 2%. That�s not even a wide spot on the road,� with the numbers
being �rather similar� for Harris.

The data analyst estimated that, based on this poll, if the 2024 election
were held again, Trump would likely still defeat former Vice President Kamala
Harris.

NEW: CNN's Harry Enten DUMPS cold water on narrative that Trump
voters "regret" backing him??

�So if there was a repeat, if folks got to be able to redo their vote that
they had back in 2024, would the result be any different? I doubt it would
be. I doubt it would be, or it would still be extremely close. The bottom
line is for all this talk of Trump voters regretting their vote, in the
numbers, it really just doesn�t show up,� Enten said.

Enten also mentioned this pattern is not unique to the 2024 election, as
Trump voters similarly showed minimal regret following their choice in 2016.

�So the bottom line is this: If there�s some idea out there that Trump voters
are going around, �Man, I wish I had voted for Kamala Harris instead of
Donald Trump,� the numbers say that is a fanciful universe,� he added. �It
really, for the most part, does not exist.�

Since Trump�s inauguration, the mainstream media have incessantly spotlighted
estranged Trump voters who allegedly had second thoughts about backing Trump
following his executive actions on immigration and federal bureaucracy cuts,
all of which were frequent talking points on the campaign trail.

The president�s approval rating currently stands at approximately 47%
overall, according to RealClearPolitics polling averages.

This marks a significant improvement from his first term, when ratings
hovered in the low 40s throughout most of his tenure, further reinforcing
Enten�s analysis of the YouGov poll�s findings that his base remains firmly
supportive despite contrary media narratives.
