President Donald Trump blasted Fox News Thursday after the network released a new poll showing that just over half of Americans approve of his handling of border security.
The survey found that a 53% majority approve of Trump's handling of the southern border, while 46% disapprove. On immigration, 46% approve of the president's policies, while 53% disapprove, according to the poll.
"The Crooked FoxNews Polls got the Election WRONG, I won by much more than they said I would, and have been biased against me for years," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. "They are always wrong and negative. It's why MAGA HATES FoxNews, even though their anchors are GREAT. This has gone on for years, but they never change the incompetent polling company that does their work.
"Now a new FoxNews poll comes out this morning giving me a little more than 50% at the Border, and yet the Border is miraculously perfect, NOBODY WAS ABLE TO COME IN LAST MONTH," he continued. "60,000 people came in with Sleepy Joe in the same month last year. I hate FAKE pollsters, one of the Worst, but Fox will never change their discredited pollster!"
Trump's worst marks, according to the survey, were on the economy, where 40% approve, 58% disapprove, and inflation, where 34% approve, 64% disapprove.
The poll was conducted June 13-16 and surveyed 1,003 registered U.S. voters. The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.
