CNN anchor Jake Tapper responds to President Donald Trump’s claim that a CNN poll shows him with 100% approval among Republicans. Trump made the assertion to reporters in the Oval Office, saying, “I am at, according to CNN, 100 percent approval within the Republican Party,” and he framed it as being based on a CNN survey. Tapper disputes the accuracy of that characterization, saying “nope” in response to Trump’s statement that the CNN poll has his approval at 100%. Both accounts describe Tapper’s direct rejection of Trump’s use of the poll figure, indicating that CNN does not support the “100% GOP approval” claim as Trump presented it. The reports focus on the exchange between Trump’s claim and Tapper’s rebuttal, without agreeing on any alternative percentage in the excerpts provided. Overall, the story centers on a disagreement over how a CNN poll’s results are being interpreted or cited by Trump versus how Tapper says it stands.
