Poll: Most Republicans unconcerned about Trump’s electability despite indictments.

Republicans Unfazed by Indictments Against⁤ Trump, CNN Poll Reveals

A recent CNN poll has revealed that a majority of Republicans remain unconcerned about the impact of the indictments against‌ former President Donald Trump on ⁢his chances of ⁤being elected in 2024.

Fifty-six percent of Republicans and ‍Republican-leaning independents expressed little worry about the ‌charges affecting Trump’s potential‍ nomination as the GOP candidate⁢ next year. This ⁢comes ⁣despite the fact‌ that the former president has faced indictments‌ in four separate cases this year, two at the ​local ‍level and two ‌at the federal ⁤level.​ These cases primarily revolve around his handling of classified documents and his ​efforts to overturn ‍the ⁣2020 election.

Charges Deemed Irrelevant ‌by Many Republicans

A significant portion of ‍Republicans ​and Republican-leaning independents also indicated that even if the charges were true,​ they ⁢would not consider them relevant to Trump’s ‍ability to serve as president. Seventy percent dismissed⁤ the charges related to alleged⁤ hush money payments‍ made⁢ to Stormy Daniels,‌ a porn star, as irrelevant. Additionally, 64% disregarded the charges related to classified documents, the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, and attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential ‌election.

Furthermore, a majority of 61% believed that the wave of charges against Trump⁢ was a result of‌ a politicized and “weaponized” Department ‍of Justice.

Trump Maintains Strong Support in​ GOP Primary

The CNN‌ poll also confirmed the findings of ​other national polls, showing‌ that more than⁣ half of ⁢Republicans continue to support Trump. ⁤He holds a double-digit lead⁣ over his opponents, with Governor Ron⁣ DeSantis (R-FL) being his closest competitor at 18% support, ‍while others only⁢ garnered single-digit support.

Voter Priorities Shift

As the campaign season gains momentum, the survey also revealed that voter priorities have become ⁤clearer. According ​to respondents, personality and character matter little compared to a candidate’s ability to handle ‌immigration, Ukraine policy, and crime.
