President Trump boasted about a poll on Thursday that he claims shows he's more popular than former President Lincoln.

“You know, a poll just came out that I am the most popular person in the history of the Republican Party,” Trump said in an interview with The Sun published on Thursday. 

“Beating Lincoln,” Trump said. “I beat our Honest Abe.” 

It is unclear what poll the president was referring to in the interview, as presidential approval polling did not exist during the presidency of Abraham Lincoln.
