Summary
First lady Melania Trump got some bad news on Thursday, courtesy of CNN data analyst Harry Enten: the American people dislike her more than any other first lady since polling on the topic began."What are you seeing about Melania Trump and how her polling is shifting?" asked anchor Kate Bolduan."Yeah, I would say that the American people really don't care for Melania Trump," said Enten, a reference to the infamous jacket she wore when touring a migrant detention facility in the first Trump administration."Take a look at this, all right?" said Enten. "Let's take a look at Melania Trump's net favorable ratings. Look at this. The lowest ever. The lowest ever. We're talking about, now, 12 points underwater. If you go back a little bit more than a year ago, she was three points above water. You go back at this point about this point in time, number one for Donald Trump, look at that, she was 30 points above water. So at this point, historic lows for Melania Trump. These numbers are absolutely awful.""One of the questions is why why the shift now?" asked Bolduan. "But also, I guess, just looking, you need to look at this always in the historical context of how does she line up against other first ladies?""If we look at this historically, the worst ever, the worst ever at this point in term number two," said Enten. "Look at this. We got her at 12 points underwater. Look at the rest of these first ladies on the board right here. They're all way above water, 42 points above water for Michelle Obama, 46 above water for Laura Bush, 25 points above water for Hillary Clinton, who always — was not always the most popular, and 50 points above water for Nancy Reagan. And I even looked at Jill Biden's numbers at this point. And that presidency, of course, that was term one. She was above water as well. So this is the worst at this point in a presidency as well.,""Melania Trump breaking records in the way that you don't want to break records historically awful," concluded Enten, reiterating, "The American people really don't care for her." - YouTube www.youtube.com
