President Donald Trump took credit for New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo s high poll numbers on Monday, saying one of the reasons why hes successful is weve helped make him successful.

You say hes gotten good marks, but Ive gotten great marks on what weve done, Trump boasted on Fox & Friends when asked about Cuomos rising popularity amid the coronavirus pandemic that has hit New York especially hard.

The results of a Siena College poll released Monday gave the Democratic governor a 78% approval rating among New Yorkers, his highest level since early 2013. Among the Republicans polled, Cuomo earned a 70% approval rating. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) also scored a 61% approval rating among New Yorkers for his response to the crisis.

In contrast, Trumps approval rating among New Yorkers was just 41%.
