Donald Trump Jr. Tops Poll of Most Popular Republicans

Donald Trump Jr. is among the most popular members of the Republican Party when his father is excluded, according to a new survey.

His “net favorability” topped the field with a net 55 percent of Republicans saying they held a favorable view of him, according to the poll, which was conducted by Fabrizio, Lee & Associates and published by Axios on Monday. He held a statistical tie with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who received a favorable rating from 54 percent of Republicans.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) received a favorable rating from 24 percent of his party’s members, besting Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) by more than 20 points. Just 2 percent of respondents said they held a favorable view of McConnell. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) — who was ousted from House GOP leadership this year after continuing to criticize former President Donald Trump — clocked in even lower, with a net negative rating of 43 percent.

Honestly, after watching the first Trump win, I will never discount anyone's chances ever again.

No platform, no beliefs, no values -just the sorriest excuse for a man in recorded history, followed by his own useless son, and a nihilistic imitator of the sorriest excuse for a man in recorded history.

A real murderer's row...if you give them the chance.

Brilliant serious and productive member of Congress driven out by his own party on weak claims of impropriety vs. an always stoned often incoherent druggie...as a party we're doing something wrong.

thinks so little of him. And the comment in the poll is "We found Mitch McConnell’s image has significantly improved since February".

Seriously. If anyone in the republican party, especially any member of the Trump family, ever worked at a respectable corporation, they would be sacked so quickly their heads would spin. They are incompetent, obnoxious, stupid, unethical, selfish, dishonest, unprofessional and many of them are frequently under the influence.

How can so many people have a favorable opinion of some of the most horrible people in existence?

Professionals and large donors do not want the name..Trump around

Donald Trump is the symbol of: lying and death If one of them is somehow nominate,

then there will be third party movement to defeat ..."Trump" or "Trump J"r

is my take on this.

Also, it looks more like a Jr High School popularity contest than a serious poll.
