‘These Are People Who Voted For Him!’ CNN’s Harry Enten Breaks Down Bad Polling News For Biden

CNN political data reporter Harry Enten broke down the latest bad polling news for President Joe Biden regarding approval for his handling of the war between Israel and Hamas.

On Friday, Enten examined data among Biden’s 2020 voters which showed that only 50% of those who disapprove of his handling of the war in Gaza support him for president. Moreover, the survey showed that by a two-to-one margin voters who no longer support Biden say the U.S. gives too much aid to Israel.

Enten noted that 50% number is one of the biggest problems for Biden, given it’s among voters he secured in the last election:

He’s getting squeezed from both ends. You know, I think it’s important to note let’s look at the choice for president in 2024. Among Biden’s 2020 voters are right, because I think this sort of illustrates sort of how Biden’s getting pushed a little bit. So if you like Biden on the Israel-Gaza war, look at that. He’s getting 87% of the vote. RFK Jr’s getting eight Donald Trump way down here at four. But if you dislike Biden, if you disapprove of the job he’s doing on the Israel-Gaza war. Look at this. He’s getting just 50% of that. Oh my goodness gracious. These are people who voted for him last time! RFK Jr is getting 20%. This is just a 30 point margin compared to a 79 point margin among those who approve of Biden on the Israel Gaza war. This is a huge dividing line within the Democratic Party, and that’s something of course, we’re seeing right now between the progressive wing and those more centrist or mainstream Democrats.

Foreign policy remains one of the big issues for Biden especially as the war in Gaza continues without a ceasefire. Over the last month, progressive activists have led pro-Palestine protests across college campuses.
