The survey also found Pence’s unfavorable rating ticking up by two points, moving from 39 percent last week to 41 percent this week. Nevertheless, Pence’s favorable rating is still above water, as 49 percent report a favorable view. In all, however, Pence has the second highest unfavorable rating among all GOP candidates. He is second only to former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, as 45 percent have an unfavorable view of the presidential hopeful.

Trump’s favorable rating skyrocketed to 81 percent over the past week after his D.C. arraignment, representing a 10-point jump from the 71 percent who reported a favorable view last week. His unfavorable rating also decreased from 26 percent to 17 percent. DeSantis also saw a boost, moving from 63 percent viewing him favorably last week to 69 percent this week. Nineteen percent currently view the Florida governor unfavorably.

Morning Consult also highlighted the strides made by Ramaswamy, who now has 56 percent viewing him favorably, consistently diminishing his lack of name-recognition week by week.

“Ramaswamy is more popular than ever: The bulk of the expected GOP electorate (56%) holds positive views of entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, marking his highest favorability rating since he launched his campaign in February,” Morning Consult observed.

Yeah, four in ten view Pence unfavorably... Five out of Ten hate his guts. The remaining 10% say: “Mike Pence??? Didn’t he used to be somebody? The name is vaguely familiar.”

See post 28…..

I believe Leep’s post wasn’t clear. He explains the ‘cult’ as Dems, enemies, etc.

You need to define your terms better. “Cult of Trump” sounds like a derogatory and defamatory label for Trump supporters.

Yeah, there are cultish Trump haters. But there’s got to be a better way to describe them.

I was attempting to turn it around and say the Trump haters are the actual CULT.

Again, for the last time, you clarified remarks that were otherwise If not clarified, beyond cruel. I appreciate that. My issue is not with anything else either past or present concerning you. And one last time, I never attempted to get you banned, but reported an incident which is usually cleared up quickly and easily. I wish you well.

Forget it and move on. You’ve been here a long time and there
is Trump support in your postings. Sometimes we get our words
mixed up as for as meaning.

Have a good day. There is a lot more to this upcoming election
than just Trump support. jmo

Not trying to get me banned just reporting me to Jim and the mods.
Didn’t even bother to ask me what i meant .. which i really don’t think was that unclear.
There is no Trump cult ...except on the left...the Cult of hate.
I’m done.

PS God bless Ronald Reagan. God bless Donald Trump. God Bless America (what’s left of it).

He'll have more delegates than DeSantis will.

He comes off as genuine as opposed to a flip-flopping, GOP establishment manufactured candidate like DeSantis.

The cult of Trump is hate worship

So, 81% of Republican party are cultists?

Who but leftist or someone involved with the Lincoln Project would claim something like that?

The cult of Trump is hate worship.

I think what Leep means is that the hate worshiping cult are the nasty antiTrumpers and the cult members are the disgusting left/RINO/establishment/deep state zombies -- and not us God-fearing Conservatives.

Well, while we hate Mike Pence, here on Free Republic, the rest of the world views him differently.

I used AI to ‘clear up’ your post and wasn’t at all shocked to see its understanding of what you said:

The group known as the Cult of Trump does not consist of conservatives. Instead, this group is found within the left-wing, RINOs (Republicans In Name Only), the deep state, and the Establishment. Moreover, the defining characteristic of this group is a strong sentiment of hatred, giving rise to what can be referred to as the Cult of Hate.

You’re either gaslighting or really need to learn to write.

Now - giving you the benefit of the doubt I think this is what you meant:

The ‘cult’ here is not conservatives. The cult is the left/RINOs/deep state/establishment... and they are the culture of hate.

*shrug*
