12. Trump's Support Craters Among Republicans

TFG may be listening to his attorneys and keeping more quiet than normal.

I doubt that these numbers will keep TFG from running in the primaries if he is not in prison

Trump’s Support Craters Among Republicans
December 13, 2022 at 6:56 am EST By Taegan Goddard 230 Comments

“Republican support for Donald Trump’s presidential bid in 2024 has cratered, an exclusive USA Today/Suffolk University Poll finds, as the former president is beleaguered by midterm losses and courtroom setbacks.”

“By 2-1, GOP and GOP-leaning voters now say they want Trump’s policies but a different standard-bearer to carry them. While 31% want the former president to run, 61% prefer some other Republican nominee who would continue the policies Trump has pursued.”

“They have a name in mind: Two-thirds of Republicans and those inclined to vote Republican want Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to run for president. By double digits, 56% to 33%, they prefer DeSantis over Trump.”

Meanwhile, while Joe Biden now leads Trump in a possible match up, he trails DeSantis in a head-to-head race, 47% to 43%.
