The Hill ^ | 8/16/2023 | Lauren Sforza

Posted on 08/16/2023 5:16:26 AM PDT by MountainWalker

More than half of Americans surveyed said they would not support former President Trump in the 2024 general election if he is the Republican nominee, according to a new poll.

The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll released Wednesday found that 53 percent of Americans said they would definitely not support Trump if he was the nominee. Another 11 percent saying that they would probably not support him.

----

Opposition to President Biden is not as strong as it is for Trump, with just 43 percent of Americans saying that would definitely not vote for him in 2024. Another 11 percent said they probably would not.

I am talking about REALITY, not what I want to happen. I am also afraid for our country. But I am a retired military intelligence officer who either dealt in total reality, not wishful thinking, or people literally would die.

So I do not tell people what they want to hear; I tell them what they need to hear.So here’s some more reality for you. Have you read any of the indictments all the way through? I have.

Now ask yourself why Willis in Fulton county indicted 18 other people beside Trump. That’s because she’s betting that there are not 18 people willing to go to jail for a long time to save Trump. Hell, Jenna Ellis already said she lied about 2020 in March of this year in order to save her law license. She is definitely not willing to go to jail.

The end game for the Dems is to either sully Trump’s name to the point that Independents and squishy Republicans turn on him, to send him to jail, or barring that to put him on house arrest, to bankrupt his campaign with legal fees, and/or, to get him to drop out of the campaign in order to have charges dropped.

That is objective reality. I don’t like it any better than you do, but it is the reality.

The country is going to be paralyzed for another 5 years regardless of what happens in 2024. Trump is likely to get the nomination and won’t/can’t win. After he loses Dems will put him in jail.

You and ms. dfwgator should lie down and curl up into a little ball and wait for the end.

The rest of us Trump supporters will get him back and enjoy the revitalization of America.

Do you believe the polls showing Trump leading the GOP field by upwards of 40%? You really can’t discount pools you don’t like and promote those you do. That’s just a little hypocritical.

For the record I don’t believe either. I think Trump is leading the GOP field just because he has a solid constituency, but not to the tune of 40+%. And I image this was a national poll heavily weighted with democrat voters from large cities.

LOL. Insulting people who voted for Trump doesn’t help Trump win in 2024.

--- "When you see positive polls for Trump from distrusted media outlets, are those push polls or reflective of reality?"

If asked of me personally, I take almost nothing at face value. I tend to look behind the "curtain," for having been convinced many times that there is some manipulation going on. Best wishes.

Trump was an unknown in 2016. No one was paying any attention to him because they were too busy preparing the coronation ceremony for Hillary. That is no longer the case. The democrats, the media and the DS are all very aware of who Trump is now and they have no intention of letting him win. They beat him in 2020 and they are even more prepared today. Can any republican win with the level of fraud and corruption the democrats have perfected? Maybe not, but Trump is not the same candidate today that he was in 2016, and the conditions on the ground are much different. To think otherwise is as foolish as the French sitting in their underground fortress while the Germans stormed through the low countries and smashed into France from the north. We’re not fighting the same war as 2016. That was 7 years ago.

I'm insulting people who won't vote for Trump again in spite of all that he accomplished under constant fire. I'm looking forward to Trump's accomplishments when he isn't being stabbed in the back as well as the front.

The point I make is not to fight the same battle. The point is simply, why are we believing the enemy or those already against someone when they tell us someone can’t win?

This is not complicated, short of a completely corrupt and controlled system saying a thing can’t happen is just flat out garbage in the defense of any argument.

And even further, with God nothing is impossible, including the election of a candidate working against a stacked system.

And I repeat, this is not coming from someone who is a hard line Trump supporter, though I am sympathetic to the qualities he can bring to the table.

Everyone throwing around the “Trump can’t win in 2024” argument is just being lazy and defeatist. The “can’t win” mantra offers no reason to vote for another other than the opinion as an asserted fact that should not be disputed.

Good point. Trump certainly did a great job draining the swamp and building the wall.

If that's what you got out of his first term, you're kinda dense. Not worth arguing with.

Here's some study material, though.

Trump signed every piece of swamp garbage bill put on his desk and our debt exploded. “Kinda of dense” to ignore that.

That is 53% of COMMUNISTS polled. These polls was out anyone that has any right leaning views. I know, I used to get these polls and finally they cut me off because my views were inconsistent with mainstream thought.

Guy, you have a man at 5% or so that you are hoping like hell
can’t displace Trump. It’s not going to happen.

All this negativity isn’t doing any of us any good. Can
you either act like you’re glad to have Trump or go over
DU and do the Lord’s work over there?

“I am in MA. A vote for Trump here is useless anyway. He isn’t going to miss it.”

And, you can tell your liberal fellow travelers you did not vote for Trump to keep your leftist bonafides.
