President Donald Trump has recorded the lowest net inflation approval rating in U.S. history, according to CNN's Chief Data Analyst, Harry Enten. Using Reuters/Ipsos polling data, Enten found Trump's net approval rating on inflation was -52 in May, -48 in June, and -50 in both July and August. This means more people disapprove of how he handled inflation than approve. Enten called these numbers "historically awful," noting Trump had the 11 worst individual polls on inflation of all time since April. For comparison, former President Joe Biden had a net inflation rating of -38 in August 2022, but that number was improving at the time. Inflation was a major topic during the 2024 presidential race, with voters initially favoring Trump over his opponent, Kamala Harris. However, Enten observed a 60-point shift in public opinion against Trump since then. Despite this shift, inflation remains the top concern for American voters, and there has been no sign of improvement in Trump's ratings on this issue. Interestingly, Trump has publicly praised Enten, despite previously calling CNN "fake news." Recently, Trump posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, expressing admiration for Enten and even claiming that he would show Trump is six times more popular than historical figures like Abraham Lincoln or George Washington. This endorsement, while unusual, highlights Trump's influence on public perception and media coverage. Enten also highlighted how Trump's support affected the political landscape in South Carolina. After Trump endorsed Senator Darline Graham, who won a special election to complete the term of her late brother, Lindsey Graham, the odds of her winning the primary increased significantly. Prediction market data from Kalshi showed Graham's chances of winning rose from 14 percent to 80 percent after Trump's endorsement. Enten attributed this dramatic shift to Trump's influence, underscoring the power of his endorsements in shaping political outcomes.
