"Something has to be done about Fake Polls! They are truly OUT OF CONTROL. We have the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, we have the Strongest Border in History, nobody has ever done a job like I have done, and they have me in the low 40s. The Democrats destroyed Healthcare, I'm trying to fix it, and they give me FAKE low numbers."
"The logic here, in case it eludes you, is that because Trump believes he is daily exhibiting unprecedented greatness in every arena, Americans must be jumping up and down in joy and adulation, and the "Fake Polls" are simply refusing to report it. Put aside for a second his bizarre claim there are "REAL POLLS" that would show how wildly popular he is that have been deep-sixed (it's unclear why he doesn't just share them with us)."
Donald Trump routinely rejects negative information about job performance, popularity, national conditions, and vote totals. He posted a multi-post tirade on Truth Social attacking poll results as 'Fake Polls,' claiming unmatched achievements on the economy and border while asserting that pollsters conceal 'REAL POLLS' showing strong support. He argued Democrats ruined healthcare and accused polls of reporting falsely low approval. No major poll shows him enjoying broad popularity: even pro-Trump pollsters place approval near 50 percent, and none of 22 RealClearPolitics 2026 polls show net positive approval. His dispute appears directed at the public rather than poll methodology.
