Trump is &#8220;bad for America.&#8221; This controversy has even reached the ears of both parties, with 34% of Democrats and 31% of self-described &#8220;Liberal&#8221; voters seeing it as a negative for the country.<\/p>\n<p>Francey Hakes, a former Federal Prosecutor, recently made a statement saying, &#8220;This is a serious time because this is banana republic sort of stuff. Using the law as a weapon against a political opponent is so wrong.&#8221; When pollsters asked voters their thoughts on this statement, 64% agreed, with 48% strongly agreeing. Another 28% disagreed, with 20% of the respondents strongly disagreeing.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, when voters were asked whether the indictment would make it more likely for Trump to win the 2024 election, almost a third (32%) of Democrats said &#8220;more likely.&#8221; Among likely voters, 42% said &#8220;more likely,&#8221; while 29% said &#8220;less likely.&#8221; However, one in five Republican voters said that it may make a Trump &#8217;24 ticket &#8220;less likely.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The unprecedented criminal proceedings have been strongly opposed by voices on all angles of the American political spectrum, including libertarian-left comedian Bill Maher, who said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to live in a country where we are one of these places where whoever is president, as soon as they get out of office, they go after them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last week, The National Pulse revealed the political compromise at the heart of D.A. Alvin Bragg&#8217;s Manhattan case against former President Trump, including his own family members&#8217; links to leading Democrats such as Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n<p>For readers interested in more Rasmussen Reports data, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rasmussenreports.com\/\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image of Donald Trump created by Midjourney AI by \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Brick_Suit\">Brick Suit\u2019.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fifty five percent of likely voters in the United States believe that the indictment and attempted prosecution of former U.S. President Donald J.
