President Trump insisted on Friday that his approval rating is markedly higher than surveys suggest, and that voters will ultimately cast their ballots for him, regardless of what they tell pollsters.

"A poll just came out now, Rasmussen, it’s now 51," Trump said on "Bernie and Sid in the Morning" on WABC in New York.

"They say that it’s 5,1 but add another 7 or 8 points to it," he continued. "They don’t want to talk about it, but when they get into the booth, they’re going to vote for Trump."

Trump's approval rating did, in fact, hit 51 percent in the conservative-leaning Rasmussen's daily tracking poll on Wednesday. As of Friday, his approval rating sat at 47 percent.

1. If saying

Made it so.

[vlyons]

2. and I am 7 or 8 times more attractive

than what my mirror says

[procon]

3. I weigh 10-15 pounds less than what my scale reads.

I really am really 20-30 years younger than that person in my mirror.

I have thousands more in my bank account than what my statement shows.


I like how this works!

[Rural_Progressive]

8. Me too

cause no matter what my wife has said for 35 years I have huge hands and all that implies.

4. If you only count white/rich people....

I believe he mentally supports this with a self assurance that dark/poor people are not real Americans so what does their opinion matter?

[Grins]

5. "They dont want to talk about it..."? - The ass-scratching baboon

Gee. I wonder why?

[bucolic_frolic]

6. Blondes have more delusions

[DBoon]

13. Tangerine heads

have nothing but delusions

[Girard442]

7. Such modesty, Donnie.

Why not just say your approval rating is actually 100% and be done with it.

[C Moon]

9. "Sire Putin, how did you get such high poll numbers? I want some!"

[Maeve]

10. He's also taller and skinnier than you'd think

Just ask his newly appointed....er, his doctor!

[NewJeffCT]

11. Yes, and Trump is 6'3" and weights 239

and all women think he's a 10 out of 10.

See how it works?

[riversedge]

19. trump is such a bragging idiot.

[Gothmog]

12. Denial is not just a river in Africa

[lark]

14. In other words, Putin has promised him a popular vote margin of 7-8 %.

This is why he's leaving our voting system wide open to attack, he knows he loses without Russia stealing the vote for him again.

[CrispyQ]

21. With the help of the GOP controlled Congress, too.

They also know they can't win without cheating.

Never forget:

[joshdawg]

18. Distraction distraction distraction distraction

Don’t look at my legal troubles! Just watch the flapping lips and waving hands!

[Doitnow]

20. Sounds like he is confident in the stupidity of his base. ---Wake up, people!!!!

[LiberalLovinLug]

23. and he may not be wrong on that

He loves the poorly educated. I think this is one of the rare times he is exactly correct.
I think there is a significant percent of people that voted for Trump, but in polls have to admit they are not happy with his performance. But if the election were held again, would vote the exact same way, if 'crooked' Hillary was running. And if he runs again, and RW Hate Radio and Fox News manages to paint the next Democratic candidate as 'crooked' too, and pounds it into their poorly educated heads, they will vote Trump again, even if they have to hold their noses.

22. My approval rating '7 or 8 points' higher than what polls say

HA! In reality Trump's approval is 20 points lower. If the election were held today only 20 to 25% of the voting public would vote for this swine.

[torius]

25. His hands, and IQ, are bigger too

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. He thinks his you know what is 7 inches longer than it really is, but it really is

not 9 inches Donnie.

[Doodley]

27. "They don't want to talk about it." Because it is BS.

[Stuart G]

28. I'll say it again...He's nuts!!!!!!

[Lifelong Protester]

29. What.An.Ass.

Period.

[JDC]

30. They've been getting to the booth and definitely NOT

...Voting Trump. He can't read a trend to save his life. Never has, never will.

He is the definition of delusional.
