Donald Trump continues to maintain overwhelming support from Republican voters, with CNN data confirming that 87 percent of Republicans currently approve of the president — unchanged from six months ago.

This approval rating places Trump ahead of all other 21st-century presidents in terms of second-term party support, eclipsing both George W. Bush and Barack Obama, who each held 78 percent approval from their respective party bases at the same point in their presidencies.

CNN Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten described Trump’s standing as immovable: “It’s like a rock,” he said, referencing Bob Seger. “The Republican base is sticking by Donald Trump at this point in time.” Enten emphasized that Trump has not lost any Republican support over the past six months, reinforcing the narrative that, despite shifting political dynamics elsewhere, the president’s support within the GOP remains constant.

In the same CNN segment, Enten highlighted Trump’s unparalleled influence in Republican primary races. The data show that in 2020, Trump-endorsed candidates won 98 percent of the time in Republican congressional and gubernatorial primaries. That trend continued with a 95 percent success rate in 2022 and a 96 percent rate in 2024. “When you go up against Donald Trump,” Enten remarked, “you’re going up against a buzzsaw.”

Surpassing Obama/Bush

It's very simple! Trump does what's best for America, not his, or any other group/party, and keeps his promises.

Amen. I agree. Thanks for your take brother. I believe Trump does desire to represent an organic (reasonably) America and not just this view or that view...while also weeding out tons of really bad ideology we have suffered quite a bit of for decades now.

But then there is also Margerie Taylor Green (Trump calls brown) and the estimated concerns over the midterms having more democratic momentum then the reps are comfortable with. Still though i would guestimate the midterms result in super majority for reps in both houses. However, it will likely be the bumpy ride from the Nightmare Before Christmas movie like jolting's along the way. Of course it may not result in super majorities. But in light of approximation to Israel, it looks like 2026 midterm timings could or may have magnetic pull toward something unusual it would seem.
