Trump insists 'real' polling numbers the 'best they have ever been'

President Donald Trump on Monday rejected the notion that his approval ratings had fallen to record lows, insisting that recent polling data was fabricated.

"My REAL Polling Numbers, not those made up by the Fake News Media, are the best they have ever been, and why wouldn’t they be with the biggest tax cuts and employment numbers EVER, the biggest outside Investment in America in World history, a totally secure Border, a giant Victory in Venezuela, the Denuclearization of Iran, unparalleled respect and success throughout the World, and much more?" Trump posted on Truth Social.

"Don’t believe the Radical Left’s Fake Poll numbers. They are Crooked and Corrupt, just like the Country Destroying Dumocrats are Crooked and Corrupt," he added.

The RealClearPolitics polling average currently shows Trump with a 39.1 approval rating and 58.3% disapproval. Trump has not been above water in that metric since March of 2025.
