Donald Trump cannot fathom the reality of his poll numbers. The current president called into CNBC to spar with Joe Kernen after the anchor reported on Trump's less-than-stellar standing with Americans in his second term. CNBC/YouTube "I have the best poll numbers I've ever had," the Republican leader told Kernen, who clarified that the statistics Trump was talking about were only polled amongst Republicans and not all citizens. The Apprentice star said CNBC was the "worst of them all" when it comes to reporting and cited CNN's chief data analyst Harry Enten as more credible. Trump doubled down on his support for Enten, claiming he "went crazy over how well" the right-winger was doing in the polls before telling the CNBC audience to watch CNN to "see about the numbers."

Following Trump's row with Kernen during their call, Enten explained to CNN's John Berman that he wasn't garnering favor with the commander-in-chief. "I give him a fair shake. I don't give him a positive spin," he noted about the numbers. CNN/YouTube "If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself, who does worse," Enten explained. "When you're comparing yourself to Richard Nixon and you say you're doing better than Richard Nixon in your second term, that's not exactly a good position to be in."
