CNN found itself in the eye of the storm as a new poll rocked the boat, revealing a startling rise in support for former President Donald Trump among minority voters. Hosts on the network’s platform heatedly debated the implications of the survey, which sent shockwaves through the political landscape.

During the segment, host Laura Coates dove into the implications of the poll’s findings, particularly focusing on the shift in minority voter support towards Trump. “Is that alarming to you?” she asked Democratic Representative Hakeem Jeffries, who defended Biden’s track record but couldn’t ignore the stark contrast in the poll’s findings.

“The Biden administration has an incredible track record of support in making sure that it is working at all times to build an economy from the middle out and the bottom up as opposed to the top down,” Jeffries argued.

The poll’s revelations didn’t stop there. It exposed a notable preference for Trump’s policies over those of Joe Biden among American voters, echoing sentiments not seen since the 1912 election.

According to the poll, 40% of voters said that Trump’s policies had personally benefited them, in stark contrast to the 18% who said the same about Biden’s policies. The discrepancy highlighted the trend of former presidents being viewed more favorably after leaving office, with Trump enjoying a similar boost in approval ratings.

The New York Times reported that among Mr. Biden’s 2020 supporters, half said his policies had not made much of a difference for them either way. In contrast, the vast majority of Mr. Trump’s 2020 supporters said that his policies had helped them.

The article shed light on a potential game-changer in the political landscape, with Trump’s policies gaining traction even among demographics targeted by Democrats. This suggests that for many Americans, economic issues weigh heavily in their political assessments and preferences.
