Friday on WABC’s “Bernie and Sid in the Morning,” radio show, President Donald Trump said his approval rating was “7 or 8 points” higher than polls show.

Trump said, “A poll just came out, Rasmussen, it’s now 51. They say that it’s 51 but add another 7 or 8 points to it. That is somewhat embarrassing for me to tell you but they don’t want to talk about it, but when they get into the booth, they want to vote for Trump. People know what’s going on.”
