Former President Trump holds commanding leads over potential Republican challengers in early 2024 primary states Iowa and South Carolina, according to new Fox Business polls. In Iowa, Trump garnered 46% support compared to 16% for Ron DeSantis and 11% for Tim Scott. In South Carolina, Trump received 48% support to 14% for Nikki Haley and 13% for DeSantis. The polls show Trump with wide leads despite being under investigation by the Justice Department for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The strong polling numbers indicate Trump remains a formidable front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination.
For sure, there are absolutely reforms that we should strongly consider. But that’s different from this attitude of “ugh, the voters are so stupid and really need to be protected from themselves by a powerful figure who happens to agree with all of my ideas”, which you do see floated around in the more authoritarian camps of both political sides.
Fair enough, I see your point. 🙂
