WATCH: GOP voters weigh in on 2024 choice for president, shred 'bogus' Trump charges

INDIANAPOLIS – Republican voters attending the National Rifle Association's annual convention over the weekend who spoke with Fox News Digital about the 2024 race for president were unanimous when it came to which candidate they wanted to see win the GOP nomination: former President Donald Trump.

Each also ripped the 34 felony charges brought against Trump by New York district attorney Alvin Bragg earlier this month, dismissing them as a "drummed-up hoax," and "bogus."

"Probably Trump," one voter named Tim said when asked which current or likely Republican candidate would have his vote. He added that Trump was the candidate most likely able to beat President Biden should he be the Democratic nominee.

Another voter named Mary said she was for "Trump 100%," but would have to hear what the other candidates had to say. She was echoed by voters Donna and Robert.

Fox then asked each of the voters for their thoughts on the falsification of business records charges Trump is facing in New York, but they were undeterred in their support for the former president.

"I believe that that is a smokescreen to draw everybody's attention away from what Biden has done and continues to do. And I think it's a drummed-up hoax against president Trump. They've been after him for years. They was after him for his whole presidency, and they're still after him. They don't want him to run again because they know he'll win," Robert said.

"It's all bogus, and everybody knows it," Mary said. She said that those pursuing the charges should be "ashamed of themselves." 

"Maybe that ought to look into other current presidents," she added.

The felony charges are baloney, of course.

The Dems will find them useful, however, when they do a gazillion spot ads against Trump, should he win the GOP nom.

But but but our “good friends” at the Washington Examiner say Trump is the only Republican candidate that can LOSE in 2024! Oh, I’m so confused!

Well there are more than a few Freepers that have, but I am not one of them.

That’s not the basis of the charges.

No one remembers why DJT was twice impeached either.

Before the election, DJT will probably be indicted for nonsense in GA, Mar-a-Lago and over J6.

The Deep State will not allow another Trump presidency. By any means necessary.

Drummed-up hoax,” and “bogus.”

It’s the only tool the democrat party has it’s been used from the day the party was formed history has recorded it.

Their agenda only has three items of interest
Socialism
Marxism
Communism
