'I don't believe those polls. There's no way [former Vice Pres. Joe Biden] beats me in Texas,' Pres. Trump told ABC News' GStephanopoulos during an exclusive interview. 'No, my polls show that I'm winning everywhere.'
As the race for the 2020 presidential election heats up, President Donald Trump is taking aim at his prospective Democratic opponents and recent swing-state polling showing frontrunners on the left roundly beating him.
"I don't believe those polls. There's no way [former Vice President Joe Biden] beats me in Texas," Trump told ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on Tuesday during an exclusive interview."No, my polls show that I'm winning everywhere." But Stephanopoulos pushed back, highlighting news reports of polls commissioned by the Trump campaign that showed Biden, whom Trump referred to as"the weakest mentally" earlier this week, and several other Democrats ahead of him in key states.
"Nobody showed you those polls because those polls don't exist, George. Those polls don't exist. I'm losing in 15 out of 17 states? Those polls don't exist," Trump said.
Sources familiar with the internal Trump campaign polling told ABC News the results surprised some members of the Trump team, particularly in states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin where the data showed the president losing."On 'Good Morning America' today they had phony polling information," Trump told Stephanopoulos."I explained to you last night that it was phony, but you didn't do anything about it.
