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 net approval rating with Latinos stood at -5 percentage 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 in net approval rating on the issue.
“Latinos do not like what Donald Trump is doing on his deportation program,” Enten said.
“‘No, no, no,’ is what the Latino community is saying,” he added.
