CNN Anchor Refuses to Accept Trump’s Increased Popularity

Jim Hoft writes for the Gateway Pundit about a leading legacy media anchor who refuses to accept reality.

President Donald Trump’s approval ratings have reached historic highs at the onset of his second term, a phenomenon that has left some far-left personalities, including CNN’s Kate Bolduan, visibly struggling to come to terms with the reality of Trump’s enduring popularity.

As Trump defies expectations and historical trends, Bolduan’s skepticism seems to embody what many conservatives see as a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).

During a recent segment on CNN, data analyst Harry Enten presented a surprising statistical revelation that President Trump is the first president to have a higher net approval rating in the first month of his second term than at any point during his entire first term.

Before Enten could finish, Bolduan interrupted, her tone laced with disbelief: “I have a really hard time believing this.” …

… Senior Political Data Reporter Harry Enten called the occurrence proof Americans were already ‘lik[ing] what they’re seeing’, even after the president’s plentiful pardons.

The polling from Reuters/Ipsos showed Trump ending the week with what’s undoubtedly his highest rating ever – a net favorability of six points.

Eight years ago, the conservative had a rating of negative three points, leading Enten to marvel at the shift.

‘That’s up nine points,’ he said – before noting how polling also showed 47 percent of Americans approving of Trump, compared to just 41 percent who didn’t.

‘To borrow a Donald Trump phrase, this is big league!’ he joked – seemingly with a hint of seriousness given the rise occurred within a matter of days.

‘This is a sign that the American people – at least initially – like what they’re seeing,’ he reasoned. ‘More Americans approve of Donald Trump’s job than disapprove.’ 

You can see the disbelief on Bolduan’s face as she struggles to comprehend the reality of Trump being more popular than ever, despite all the propaganda she and the fake news media have been feeding to the American public.
