CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten on Tuesday responded to President Donald Trump botching his name as he pushed wild claims that he has “the best poll numbers [he’s] ever had” during a live TV hit earlier in the day.
Trump — in an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk Box” host Joe Kernen — urged viewers to watch “Harry Emden” on CNN, declaring that the data analyst “went crazy over how well” he was doing.
The president claimed his approval rating was at 71% and, among Republicans, bragged that the figure is around 94 to 95%.
It’s unclear where Trump is getting such figures, which seemingly don’t mirror reality and were swiftly fact-checked by Kernen on CNBC.
Enten quickly dismissed the president’s remarks on his numbers.
