Donald Trump has shown himself to be extremely dissatisfied with an opinion poll conducted by the Siena Research Institute in collaboration with The New York Times, which highlighted voters' dissatisfaction with his actions.

In a series of messages on his platform Truth Social, Trump promised to add the poll to an already filed defamation lawsuit against the newspaper, accusing it of lies and bias. He stated that false polls should be considered criminal offenses and mentioned several media outlets that he believes are guilty of publishing biased data. This outburst of anger comes in the context of the midterm elections, where Trump is preparing to get actively involved, considering that the poll showed a major dissatisfaction with his policies, including in the areas of immigration and tariffs.
