Trump’s tweet comes on the eve of his 100^th day in office, which the president is marking at a rally in Harrisburg, Pa.

“Well, he’s pretty close to perfect, Sean,” Dobbs said. “He’s worked his tail off. Still is. Meanwhile, taking care of national defense, national security and all the challenges that aren’t on the Trump agenda. I mean, it’s truly remarkable what he’s doing and the credit he’s not receiving for what he’s done.”

Trump since his inauguration has received low approval ratings from American voters, with a CNN poll this week showing Trump at 44 percent job approval and 54 percent disapproval.
