    In a word: No

    In fact, his support is growing.

    "Why?" you may ask.

    Because most people can see what's happening here. The communists and liberals are trying everything possible to bring him down and nothing is working for them. Anyone can see that he's the victim of a witch hunt and the people are getting tired of these tactics. I'm warning the liberals now... this is going to backfire on you.


    IN OR OUT? New poll reveals where Republican voters stand in support of Trump after second indictment

    8 in 10 Republicans hope Trump stays in the race amid the federal investigations


    June 16, 2023

    Republicans are rallying behind former President Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign, according to a new poll that reveals an increase in support among the GOP following his two indictments.

    After being indicted on charges related to alleged mishandling of classified documents, a Marist Poll survey found that 56% of Americans — the majority being Democrats and independents — think Trump should halt his 2024 presidential campaign, while 43% think he should remain in the race.

    But the poll reveals strong GOP support for Trump, with 83% of Republicans supporting his run for president amid the investigations, while 87% of Democrats and 58% of independents think he should drop out of the race.

    The majority of Republicans, 76%, reported having a favorable opinion of the former president, increasing from 68% in a February poll.

    "As former President Trump deals with his latest legal woes, Republicans are mostly standing with him, while Democrats are calling for him to exit the 2024 campaign," Lee M. Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, said alongside the polling results. "Time will tell if this pattern holds, but for now, Republicans are grounded on where they stand on Trump regardless of these unfolding events."

    Trump received a boost in support from Republicans around his indictment, with 50% believing he did nothing wrong, up five points from 45% in a March poll.

    Looking forward to 2024, 64% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said they will support Trump in his campaign if he does not drop out, while 32% said they are going to support another GOP candidate.

    The poll also revealed a decrease among Americans who believe Trump did something wrong in the indictment, dropping from 75% in March to 73% in the June survey.

    The results suggest that 78% of Democrats and 50% of independents believe Trump broke the law.

    Trump was first indicted in April on state-level charges stemming from alleged claims he made hush money payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 election.

    Last week, the former president faced a second indictment from Special Counsel Jack Smith on 37 federal counts relating to retention of sensitive documents.

    Despite speculation over how the indictments might affect Trump's presidential bid, his campaign reportedly received over $6.6 million in fundraising within days of the federal indictment. Trump pleaded not guilty in a Miami court Tuesday and has not made any indication at this time that he will drop out of the 2024 race.

    The Marist poll was conducted June 12-14, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

    toughcoins Rarely is the liberal viewpoint tainted by realism

    I am not a Trump supporter. I am an enemy of the Democratic Party.

    There's a big difference.

    That’s the beauty of the freedom we enjoy here in America. Everyone is free to choose as they wish. Personally, I wouldn’t have it any other way.

    I was for Trump. Now I’m for the man Trump helped get elected for Governor of Florida when no one knew DeSantis
    Wish he wasn’t running and instead be the wise man who is the figurehead of Let’s make America Great Again movement/Clean out the Swamp.

    As Americans, I believe we have always been somewhat sympathetic to the downtrodden. Heck, even high profile murders garner huge fan bases from prison…… Now, the low information voter won’t care, but to anyone that has paid any attention it is painfully obvious that Trump has not been treated in a manner that we typically treat our former leaders. Worse than that, the manner that Trump has been treated is diametrically opposed to the manner in which the left’s criminals have been treated. I believe the left has seriously miscalculated their actions against the man and have only served to strengthen his appeal.
