Trump finds silver lining in new poll showing low approval rating

Published April 23, 2017 8:35pm ET



Even though two new polls show him at record-low approval ratings near the 100-day mark, President Trump tweeted on Sunday that he still would have won the 2016 elections.

“New polls out today are very good considering that much of the media is FAKE and almost always negative. Would still beat Hillary in … popular vote,” Trump tweeted Sunday afternoon. “ABC News/Washington Post Poll (wrong big on election) said almost all stand by their vote on me & 53% said strong leader.”
