Polls taken immediately after Donald Trump’s conviction show there has been no negative impact on his support and even a slight increase in favorability, especially amongst independent voters.
Trump was convicted on 34 counts in a brazen political show trial that Democrats hoped would harm his presidential prospects, although that doesn’t seem to have materialized.
A Daily Mail poll conducted by J.L. Partners found 22 per cent of respondents to have a more positive view of Trump as a result of the conviction compared to 16 per cent who have a more negative view.
In other words, the conviction has totally backfired and handed Trump a 6 percentage point approval boost.
Amongst independents, a key voting group that will be crucial to success, 20 per cent feel more positive about Trump compared to 16 per cent who feel more negative.
“Independents largely do not think the hush-money case was undertaken with the right motives or that Trump’s actions were troubling enough for the case to be charged,” reports the Daily Mail.
Amongst Trump’s own MAGA supporter base, 54 per cent said the ruling had no impact on their support, while the guilty verdict solidified the support of 36 per cent of Trump’s 2020 voters, while just 6 per cent felt more negative about him.
A separate CBS News poll also found that the conviction had resulted in views about Trump looking “much like they did before it took place.”
“Overall, opinions of the verdict are in line with what views of Trump’s guilt or innocence were before the verdict was reached. Among those who thought Trump was guilty before hearing the verdict, nine in 10 now say the jury reached the right verdict — and vice versa for those who previously thought he wasn’t guilty,” reports the network.
It remains to be seen whether the other show trials against Trump will produce different results given that they relate to alleged crimes other than payoffs to porn stars, but the reaction so far won’t please Democrats.

Trump deserves a medal for being convicted by a Democrat kangaroo court.
He also deserves a medal for the Mueller investigation.
And another two medals for both impeachments.
And another three medals for the three other indictments.
He is quite a war horse, and deserves the recognition.
“He is quite a war horse, and deserves the recognition.”
No kidding. AND, he does it for us, for the Republic. He has nothing to gain personally from all this endless abuse heaped on him. What a superman (in the truest sense of the word).
Throw him in jail and he will win all 50 states.
Man is the lightning rod exposing for many to see just how depraved the Federal Government is.
“When a good man is hurt, all who would be called good must suffer with him.”
— Euripides
“He is quite a war horse, and deserves the recognition.”
He deserves a couple more for destroying the Clinton, Bush, and Cheney dynasties.
Trump deserves a medal for not quitting when democrats flooded the DC zone with lies about Russian prostitutes peeing on a bed. Lots of lessor men would have dropped out just on the rumors.
As the liberal ‘elites’ knew ... ‘cause they had done this to other citizens.
I suspect democrat totalitarian filth has been playing this game on Republicans for decades. Make up lies - start the bullying process. Democrats thugs in ‘intelligence’ assist. We’ve been a third world style hellhole for many years is my guess.
When democrats expanded their power based to include cross dressers, sexual weirdos, criminal illegals, commies, and Hamas supporters someone should have caught it - using DEI hires they were able to to place incompetent bad people in high government positions. The new ‘merit’ to them was based on who could keep democrats in power.
Trump needs a big broom to sweep out the filth.
Donald Trump may be a flawed candidate, but he’s our candidate.
I’m voting for the Outlaw.
Flawed. In what way?
It is likely that they will put him in jail.
Unless the Congress convinces the Supreme Court to stop this insanity.
If all of those fail, and the ComDems steal the election.
It will be up to We the People.

Flawed because the press tells us he is flawed.
