Trump claims real polling numbers with no proof as polls show low approval
TL;DR
Trump ranted on Truth Social that his “REAL Polling Numbers” are the best and blasted the media as pushing “Fake News,” but provided no data or evidence. Independent polls around the same period put his national approval near one-third (AP/NORC ~32%, Quinnipiac ~32%, Fox News ~39%), with Republicans showing declines as the Iran war and high gas prices weigh on support. The piece notes a pattern: he denounces polls when negative and later embraces them when favorable.
