'This is wild:' CNN analyst stunned by young voters' dramatic shift on Trump

A dramatic reversal among a crucial voting bloc is emerging as the defining story of the 2026 midterm landscape, according to new polling analyzed by CNN's Harry Enten.In the fall of 2024, voters under 50 gave Kamala Harris only a narrow three-point edge over Donald Trump, but today, the president's net approval rating among that same group has collapsed to negative 41 points in CNN's polling average — a swing of roughly 38 points against the president. By contrast, voters 50 and older have moved against Trump by less than half that amount, a shift of under 15 points."How big is this shift?" Enten said. "Yeah, I mean, we are talking about an absolutely huge shift, a 180 – young voters are fed up and they're taking their anger out on President Trump."That shift is now bleeding into congressional races even though Trump himself isn't on the ballot. In the fall of 2024, Democrats led Republicans by four points among under-50 voters in generic House matchups. That lead has since more than quadrupled to 17 points. Among voters 50 and older, the picture is essentially unchanged, with Republicans holding a six-point edge, down only slightly from an eight-point lead.The trend looks even starker among the most motivated voters, a group pollsters watch closely given midterms' historically lower turnout. Democrats held just a two-point lead among extremely motivated under-50 voters in 2024. That lead has since ballooned to 46 points, a shift Enten described as the kind of swing that produces genuine wave elections."That's wild," said CNN's Kate Bolduan."This is wild," Enten agreed. "This is a wild shift – taking the words right out of my mouth. We're talking about a 44-point shift amongst those who are extremely motivated to turn out and vote." - YouTube youtu.be

'Prepared to vote no': GOP Senate holdout drops live-TV bomb on Trump

Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) made it clear during an impromptu interview on MS NOW that he is prepared to stop acting Attorney General Todd Blanche from assuming the permanent position. As MS NOW host Stephani Ruhle was discussing Blanche’s travails at getting out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, she broke away to Ali Vitali, who had flagged the unaccompanied Cornyn down in a hallway."Hold!" Ruhle cried. "Ali's actually talking to John Cornyn right now." MS NOW swiftly cut to Vitali and Cornyn as he delivered some blunt truths to Trump. “We want Blanche to conform the settlement documents and the tax lawsuit to what a sworn testimony was in the hearing," he said."I don't know whether it's the White House, or somebody who works there, or somebody works for the president is basically telling them, 'Don't agree to those terms' — and so we're kind of back to square one.”“We’re line now on MS NOW,“ Vitali told the Texas Republican. “As you think through what you need from DOJ, if they’re not able to give you the narrower look at that IRS immunity deal, does that mean you are willing to vote no?”“I am prepared to vote no,” he answered. “I owe it to my constituents and, to Mr. Blanche to try to negotiate in good faith. And that's what we've been doing."When asked if Cornyn had spoken to Trump, he replied, "No." "He could fix this in a minute," said Cornyn. "But I don't know who he's listening to." - YouTube youtu.be
