More than half of Americans say there’s no chance of them voting for former President Donald Trump to return to the White House in 2024, according to a national poll released Wednesday.
With Trump, 77, the clear front-runner in the Republican primary, 53% of Americans told the AP-NORC Center survey they would “definitely not” support him next November – with another 11% saying they would “probably not” pull the lever for the 45th president.
That leaves just 36% who say that they would “probably” or “definitely” support Trump in his third consecutive bid for the presidency.
But Trump’s high disapproval rating among the general public has yet to affect most Republicans, with 74% saying they would definitely or probably support the former president if he were the GOP nominee — and 63% saying they wanted Trump to keep running in 2024. *** On the other side of the aisle, three-quarters of respondents — including 55% of Democrats — said they did not want President Biden to seek re-election. However, only 43% of Americans said they definitely would not support him in a general election, while 11% said they would “probably not.”
*** Meanwhile, a Quinnipiac University survey of a hypothetical Biden-Trump 2024 matchup showed the incumbent leading the former president by one percentage point in the popular vote, 47% to 46%.
The same poll also found that 54% of Americans think Trump should be prosecuted for his alleged attempts to remain in power following his defeat by Biden in 2020, while 68% said they believed anyone convicted of a felony should not be eligible to serve as president. ***

“Biden should be in 1980 Carter territory”.
_________________________________________________
Biden is in 1980 Carter territory and is ripe for the picking. But it takes a winning coalition to exploit this, similar to what Glenn Youngkin did in VA. Trump has his core followers, but little else, not to mention a maze of legal proceedings he must maneuver through in 2024.
If Trump truly wants revenge on the Democrats, he should step aside and allow one of his competitors to crush Biden in a landslide. I don’t think his ego would allow for this, however.
“ Remember, more than half the population doesn’t vote at all‘
Oh a LOT them in certain locations vote, they just have no clue they’ve actually done it. They have plenty of drug money in their pockets the day after though.
I see the usual criminals are setting up to steal another fraud-driven election in 2024. Right now they are prepping the psychological battlefield.
Elections in America today are about as useful as elections in China.
They bear many other aspects in common as well.
Stop telling us things we don’t want to hear!
It is a poll by the Ass Press, so it is automatically assumed to be fraudulent.
I would strongly suggest you rid your party of its Rino Uni Party backed hacks. A good start would be with Ronna McDaniel and Mitch Mcconnell.
Fake polls are used to set up the results of the steal and make them believable.
How pathetic is it that we have Trump-haters here trying to pass off the most biased of polls against Trump as legitimate?
Well, the Republican party is more liberal than many of us would like. We on Free Republic are more conservative than most Republicans.
I’m not a Republican. I am an Independent. The best advice I can lend is that the base of your party is MAGA. Just look at Trump rallies vs other GOP candidates. Ergo, if the GOP is serious about winning, it would be in their best interest to listen to their base instead of their Rinos. The rank and file GOP membership needs to act because the number of people like me are increasing and not going away. You ignore this at your choice of course, but I suggest that would be a mistake.
Who says Trump has been convicted of crimes? From what I can determine, he has been accused, but not yet convicted. Sounds like a Democrat smokescreen to me. I would still vote for him in lieu of any Democrat because we already know how they plan to run the country.
The TDS is as strong here as on any news channel or demonrat underground.
Yeah let that great patriot Mike Pence.. “win”... uh huh. Brilliant view of people who have no idea the support has across the Nation- it is not just a “core” group. There are large numbers of duped people— and they will not vote for jobama and certainly not haira@@ or Newsomes plan to californicate the entire county on a global basis.
Well fist step would be to stop arguing over it...
Useless. Then to realize Washington owns the vote.
Lastly to yeah, stop voting. Nothing will send the message quicker than that.
Truth.
It is hard to accept. But it will not be long until everyone understands.
Fake push poll.
Polls are for idiots, exit polls are for morons.
Might indeed be a legitimate poll reflecting current sentiments - - and trying to predict behavior fourteen and one-half (14.5) months in the future.
EXACTLY HOW MANY PERSONS WERE POLLED???? WHERE????
ALL CAPS. It reminds me of a politician who has a penchant for using all caps. Calm down. The answer to your question as to number of people polled is in the article.
