CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten said Wednesday that new polling shows “there has been a massive backlash” against Donald Trump among Latino voters.
Trump’s approval rating with Latinos stood at -5 points at the start of his second term, Enten noted.
It’s a number that “a lot of Republicans would really like,” he said.
But it has since plunged to -28 points, a drop Enten said is significantly steeper than the decline seen among the overall electorate.
Enten put much of the freefall down to Trump’s aggressive anti-immigration agenda and deportation program. While Trump was polling evenly on deportations when he returned to office, he is now -34 points on the issue.
