Trump Claims Fox News Ratings Are “The Real Polls”

The Hill reports:



President Trump on Saturday morning touted the television ratings from his campaign rally in Tulsa, Okla, last weekend and his town hall with Fox News’ Sean Hannity this week.

Trump asserted in a pair of tweets that the ratings “are the real polls,” after a series of recent pubic surveys have shown him trailing Democratic rival Joe Biden both nationally and in key swing states.

The president has repeatedly dismissed polls showing him trailing rivals as “fake,” and his latest tweets come after a spate of recent surveys have shown Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, with a double-digit lead over the president nationally.
