Trump brags about 'highest ever' approval ratings from MAGA base -- despite Epstein backlash

On Sunday, President Trump highlighted his poll numbers within the GOP, asserting that his approval ratings have risen “significantly” despite the ongoing controversy surrounding infamous sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

“Since the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax was exposed by the Radical Left Democrats and some ‘troublemakers,’ my Poll Numbers within the Republican Party, and MAGA, have increased significantly,” Trump shared on Truth Social.

“They have reached 90%, 92%, 93%, and 95% in various polls, setting records for the Republican Party. My General Election numbers are at their highest, EVER! People appreciate Strong Borders and all the other initiatives I have implemented. GOD BLESS AMERICA. MAGA!”

It is not immediately clear which polls Trump was citing.

Several recent surveys last week showed Trump with a robust approval rating among Republicans, such as a CNN poll that pegged it at 88% and a Quinnipiac poll that gauged it at 90%.

Both of those polls marked an uptick for Trump’s approval rating among his base, with a prior CNN poll pegging him at 86% and a prior Quinnipiac survey at 87%.

Trump’s brag about his polling numbers comes after controversy within part of his MAGA base over Epstein and demands that the administration release more information on the deceased pedophile.
