CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten expressed surprise Monday at the significant decline in Americans’ trust in the FBI following the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
President-elect Donald Trump announced Saturday that he will nominate former Chief of Staff to the Secretary of Defense Kash Patel as his FBI Director. Enten, on “CNN News Central,” suggested Patel’s potential reform agenda might resonate with the public due to the agency’s dwindling credibility among Americans.

“I think Patel has real reason to believe that Americans would go along with changes that he might potentially make at the FBI and there’s a reason why Donald Trump feels like he can make this change,” Enten told CNN anchor Kate Bolduan. “It’s because, if you look here, ‘FBI is doing an excellent or a good job,’” he read off the screen.
