Trump on trial: Poll shows 3 in 5 people want ex-president to face trial before 2024 contest
Washington Examiner ^ | August 25, 2023 | Julia Johnson

Most people say former President Donald Trump should go to trial for his various cases regarding classified documents and attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election prior to the 2024 contest, in which he appears likely to be the Republican nominee.

According to a new POLITICO Magazine/Ipsos poll, 62% of people said they believe Trump should stand trial for his storage of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, for which he was indicted in June, prior to the 2024 presidential election in November.

Sixty-one percent also believed he should stand trial for cases regarding alleged attempts to subvert the 2020 presidential election, which he was indicted for this month, prior to the 2024 contest.

Most people claimed to understand somewhat or very well the charges laid out against the former president. However, fewer respondents said so than when measured in June. More indictments have been handed down since the June survey.

Further, more than half of Americans said the trials should take place before the primaries in 2024, which are less than five months away.

Independents, though, increasingly think the trial should occur before the presidential election in November. According to the poll, 63% said so, and only 14% disagreed. Twenty-two percent reported they didn't know.

You dont know what you are posting.
Biden already sold whatever they wanted and stored the cash. He’s using tax dollars to payback.

They all want to live like that... Trump is in their way.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Trump is the gay supporter, not DeSantis. Which is one of the main reasons I no longer support Trump. Those are the exact types of principles that explain Trump being stuck at 50% of Republican support.

Delusions of grandeur........

Trump won in 2020; we all know it.

You, unfortunately, can’t handle common sense. ]


Trump’s calculated lies where he said he thought that he won the election were an excellent gambit to preserve the illusion of electoral viability. Losers don’t get second chances. Winners do. But everything his people looked into came up snake eyes, and they said so in sworn statements. That’s why they claimed election fraud in public, but, under oath, admitted that they found nothing big enough to have won the election for Trump.

Note that I don’t think Trump is literally Hitler the way the left caricatures him. My take on Trump is that he’s a New York liberal whose principal motivation is self-promotion. Say what you will about Caesar, but he was a serious man with serious goals. Trump just enjoys basking in the limelight and will say or do anything that comes to mind at the spur of the moment. We need something who adheres to traditional GOP principles, not a weather vane in human form.

[Democrat attack ads if Trump is the nominee will just be clips of Bill Stepien (Trump’s 2020 campaign manager) and Jason Miller (Trump’s 2024 senior adviser) testifying that they know Trump lost in 2020 while publicly lying about or profiting from it anyway.]

They have much of it already set up... Checking gun shops.. That will be first order.
When it happened in Cuba, those who could fled to Florida. They lost everything to castor’s government... Homes, business..
These Americans who don’t know, had best get educated on what their government has in store.
One man is between them and us

Because DeSantis is a good man, unlike most every other Trump endorsement.


This just exposes how you think....

You consider desantis, someone who has

lied to the people of the state of Florida and the nation
manipulates people and the media, to jerk them around with announcements
committed fraud and laundered millions of campaign funds

to be a good man...

So much for your perspective and morals if you consider that to be good..

This just exposes how you think....

So, you truly think DeSantis is worse than previous Trump endorsements like McConnell, McCarthy, McCain, Romney, and Ryan? Ok then.
