(DCNF)—Pollster Matt Towery said on Fox News Friday that President Donald Trump’s actual approval rating far exceeds what the media claims.
Gallup published a poll Thursday showing Trump’s approval rating dropped to 37%, with support among independents falling to 29%. During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Towery shed light on the discrepancy between what he said were Trump’s actual approval ratings and those portrayed by mainstream media outlets. Towery said that while some polls suggest Trump’s approval hovers around 30%, he believes the reality is much more favorable for the president.
“Well, it is low. And let me tell you, there’s a war that takes place. You talk about the media. There’s one among us pollsters as well. Those of us who poll Trump very well and have been accurate, oftentimes our polls are shunted to the side,” Towery told host Laura Ingraham.
Towery said polling accuracy is often influenced by bias, as certain polls that show stronger approval for Trump are sidelined in favor of those that report lower numbers.
“You get like a Gallup poll. Gallup used to be very good at doing presidential approval. They’re not anymore. They certainly are not with Trump. 38% approval? That’s a joke. So, really, when you look at polls, it’s almost like when you look at the old legacy media versus the new media and the conservative media,” Towery said. “It’s two different worlds. Trust me, Donald Trump’s at above 50% approval, majority approval in this country. Take it from me. I’m right.”
Trump’s approval rating in June was 47.5%, surpassing the approval ratings of former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama at the same point in their second terms. Bush’s approval was 45.9%, and Obama’s was 47.1% on the same date in their respective second terms, according to polling data from Real Clear Politics (RCP).
The RCP data aligns with a recent Harvard University Center for American Political Studies/Harris poll, which found that a slight majority of voters consider the economy “strong.”
The increase in Trump’s approval rating coincides with a significant rise in consumer confidence, which jumped 12.3 points to 98.0 in May. This surge was fueled by improved expectations for business conditions, job prospects, and future income, gaining momentum following the May 12 U.S.-China trade deal.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
