There is no reason to believe anything Trump says.
If these stats eventually prove to be poor, it's only reasonable to think that they really must be awful indeed.

Stall and delay, deny, defer, distract, and deflect. Look what happened to the Special Counsel cases against Dummkopf Trumpf, his healthcare plan to replace Obamacare, Russian and Israeli aggression, ad nauseum. Dummkopf Trumpf may continue to buy time, but there is one undeniable adversary where his paltry, obvious tactics just won't work: i.ytimg.com

Controlling the Media so that people don't learn about things like hunger in America or criticism of Der Dictator is a major part of the Fascist Way.

When they go full regime and start releasing stats straight out of 1984 is when things will get interesting.
Many will no longer be able to ignore what they've actually voted for.

Pres Trump needs more time to fire someone and then appoint another person who will report the data he wants to see?

"We have always been at war with Eastasia".
Will soon come to us in the form of "We have always been at war with Disney".

But actually, he thought as he re-adjusted the Ministry of Plenty's figures, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. Most of the material that you were dealing with had no connexion with anything in the real world, not even the kind of connexion that is contained in a direct lie. Statistics were just as much a fantasy in their original version as in their rectified version. A great deal of the time you were expected to make them up out of your head. For example, the Ministry of Plenty's forecast had estimated the output of boots for the quarter at 145 million pairs. The actual output was given as sixty-two millions. Winston, however, in rewriting the forecast, marked the figure down to fifty-seven millions, so as to allow for the usual claim that the quota had been overfulfilled. In any case, sixty-two millions was no nearer the truth than fifty-seven millions, or than 145 millions. Very likely no boots had been produced at all. Likelier still, nobody knew how many had been produced, much less cared. All one knew was that every quarter astronomical numbers of boots were produced on paper, while perhaps half the population of Oceania went barefoot. And so it was with every class of recorded fact, great or small. Everything faded away into a shadow-world in which, finally, even the date of the year had become uncertain.
