President Donald Trump boasts the highest favorability in a hypothetical 2024 Republican presidential primary, a Morning Consult survey released this week found.
The survey confirmed what has been seen in several other surveys as of late, with Trump taking the clear lead in the hypothetical 2024 presidential field. In this survey, Trump leads his closest potential challenger, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), by 18 percent, garnering support from nearly half of potential GOP voters — 49 percent. That reflects a two-point uptick from the 47 percent support he saw roughly one month ago in the same survey:
The poll also explored the favorability of each potential candidate and found Trump leading the pack in terms of favorability, as 80 percent have a favorable view of the former president, while 18 percent do not.
DeSantis comes in second place in terms of favorability, as 73 percent have a favorable view of the governor. While just nine percent have an unfavorable view, nine percent also said they have never heard of him — a factor Trump does not have an issue with.
Sixty-one percent have a favorable view of both former Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), but 31 percent have a negative view of Pence, compared to 19 percent for Cruz.

Only one potential candidate listed had a majority viewing her unfavorably — former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), with 53 percent viewing her unfavorably compared to just 18 percent who have a favorable view.

“hypothetical” is the keyword in this situation...
Trump + DeSantis = 80% (hint, hint, hint, hint...)
DeSantis will be insulted, whipped and bloodied if he runs in primary...follow Jeb, Ted Cruz, Kasich, etc into Oblivion for future presidential runs.
It’s not a “boast”, it’s a fact. Americans will return Donald to the Oval Office if they can stop the cheating, and that’s a big if; nothing is more important.
Too bad. Liz is lost
Time always tells
Still a tough blow for the De Santiago crowd
All polls are “hypothetical”. You do not know this simple fact? Must be very low IQ.
Cheating in elections is an American tradition. I lived in Chicago when JFK won Illinois!
Trump lost in 2020 due to the perfect storm...
Voter fraud + mean tweets+saying covid was just another flu + hiring snakes in cabinet, etc
It did not help when Biden posed as a “moderate” and was hiding in basement wearing burqa. Voters construed that as taking covid more seriously.
i got you beat on iq numbers...
i didn’t get the experimental shots mister pin cushion...
it’s not a tough blow for desantis...
trump’s “operation warped speech” against desantis pissed off a lot of his supporters in my area of florida...
Beginning to look like the 2016 primary season. My pick for best ticket: Trump/Desantis
Republicans need someone who will smash, SMASH the corruption in government. Trump may be the only one who can do it. Out of vengence, I DO NOT CARE.
Given the current, frightfully dangerous international situation, Trump’s return to office might be the only thing that prevents WW III with the loss of millions of American lives. After all, of all the R and D candidates who may be running, he’s the only with a clear record of actually keeping us out of wars while still defending and successfully protecting our most vital national interests. Desantis, although a really good guy doesn’t have that track record. Hence my dream ticket: Trump/Desantis
Not sure if they’d do that ticket...since they’re both from FL...usually they go for a pair from different states...
Ok, if you say so. I will not attack you any more today because we agree on 80% of issues. That is what Reagan taught me.
Spot on.
As for those who believe the election theft of 2020 was “normal”, let’s round them up and drop ship them into Bakhmut. See how fast they change their tune.
Haaa.... Gov Desantis is way smarter than Jeb, Mittens and others from the 2016 cast... without an official nomination, you don’t know how strong Desantis could be against Trump. Watch as the lib media starts pumping up for Trump... he’s leading in this poll, and that poll.... the Liberals WANT Trump to be our nominee... so that any liberal loon as good shot to win. Republicans should have run the table in the House and taken at least a 2 seat lead in the Senate.... we blew it because we suck at this game.
DeSimps know DeSantis can’t beat Trump in a primary.
