From Fox News: CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten compared President Donald Trump to a “soaring eagle” rather than a lame duck on Tuesday, citing that the president had signed the most executive orders at this point in his presidency in 100 years.
“I think there was this concern among some folks that Donald Trump would come in for a second term and kind of be a lame duck. He ain‘t no lame duck. If anything, he’s a soaring eagle,” Enten said on CNN. “Let‘s talk about Trump executive orders in 2025. He’s already signed 111 so far. That is the most at this point in a presidency in at least 100 years.”
Trump has touted the 111 executive orders he’s signed, saying “More than any in American history.” However, Trump’s approval rating stands at 43%, with 53% disapproving of the job he’s doing, according to a Reuters/Ipsos survey conducted March 31-April 2.
Enten said it was the most executive orders in any single year since Harry Truman was president in the early 1950s.
“The bottom line is, whether you like Trump or you don‘t like him, you can‘t say that he‘s come in and not try to deliver on what he at least believes were his promises on the campaign trail. And he‘s doing so in historic fashion,” Enten said.
Enten posted a video of him analysis and wrote:
Trump’s going for history & redefining the presidency: “he ain’t no lame duck… He’s a soaring eagle!”
1. Record number of executive orders
2. 86% say his approach is completely different from others
3. This isn’t seen as a power grab: 53% say his power is too little or right
Enten said the poll shows that the claims that Trump is a “king” are completely off base, as the majority of Americans feel he has the right amount of power, or not enough.

Liberals are having a meltdown over Enten’s comments:
This is why I don’t watch any cable news program anymore. The world would be better if all of them failed. They do not accurately report anything anymore..nothing but spin and clickbait

And conservatives are praising CNN for finally telling the truth:
Helpful. I’m surprised that CNN told the truth for once.
