President Trump on Sunday celebrated what he described as a surge in support from his Republican base, asserting that his approval ratings have climbed “significantly” despite mounting controversy over ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
“My Poll Numbers within the Republican Party, and MAGA, have gone up, significantly, since the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax was exposed by the Radical Left Democrats and, just plain ‘troublemakers,’” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“They have hit 90%, 92%, 93%, and 95%, in various polls, and are all Republican Party records. The General Election numbers are my highest, EVER! People like Strong Borders, and all of the many other things I have done. GOD BLESS AMERICA. MAGA!”
It remains unclear which polls Trump was referencing in his statement. However, recent surveys indicate strong Republican support. A CNN poll released last week showed Trump with an 88% approval rating among GOP voters, while a Quinnipiac poll reported it at 90%.
These figures reflect a slight increase from previous polls, with CNN previously showing him at 86% and Quinnipiac at 87%.
Trump’s statements follow backlash from some MAGA supporters demanding transparency on the late Epstein’s connections and renewed scrutiny surrounding the matter.
