'Corrupt as hell': Trump wakes up seething about his polling in two newspapers

https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-approval-rating-2672321734/



President Donald Trump lobbed another attack against the nation's two leading newspapers over their polling.

The president started off Friday morning with a fresh complaint about his approval rating measured by the New York Times and the Washington Post, suggesting that "real polls" showed he was actually more popular than ever.

"The Failing New York Times and the Washington ComPost, two 'papers' that have ruthlessly fought me for years, have each done Polls where a vast majority of those sampled are Democrats," Trump posted on Truth Social at 7:20 a.m. EST. "In other words, the Polls, just like their writings, are RIGGED - It is not possible for a Republican to do well in such a Poll! They are 'corrupt as hell.'"


"The real Polls out there have me doing better than ever before, JUST LIKE ELECTION DAY, 2024, where I WON seven out of seven Swing States, the Popular Vote, and Districts by 2,750 to 505," Trump posted Friday. "I won the Election in a landslide! The Fake News Media is Failing Our Nation at levels never seen before. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

And when did not receiving 50% of the vote constitute a "landslide"?
