US President Donald Trump has claimed that he enjoys 99% popularity in Israel, joking that he could move there and become the country's prime minister if Americans ever grew tired of him.
Trump made the remarks during a Fox News interview on November 3 and repeated a similar statement in a November 12 radio interview.
However, his claimed 99% approval rating has not been supported by any publicly available credible poll.
His comments have sparked attention because of his close political relationship with Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Disclaimer: The 99% popularity figure is Trump's own claim, not an independently verified polling result.
