One in three Republican voters would have preferred a different candidate to Donald Trump for the upcoming presidential election.

In March, the former president won enough primary races to secure the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election.

However, according to a survey of 1,003 Americans by Canadian polling firm Leger, Trump does not command the full support of his base and 33 percent of this demographic would have preferred another politician. Meanwhile, this proportion is higher (47 percent) among Republican voters aged 18 to 34 years old.

    The whole Democrat approach has been “we aren’t donald trump” for the last 8 years.

    Oh yeah here we go - Tankie Trolls Assemble!

    I don’t know if you’ve seen the news in the last few years but there’s been a fair bit of positive legislative and policy changes due to the Democrats having at least some power for now. I’m not going to list them here because I don’t think you care.

    Yeah they didn’t give us free energy and cops still shoot people without consequence so it must be the Democrats fault for sucking.

    Those of us who were old enough to read the news when Trump was first illegitimately put in power were also super pissed off at the weak response from the Democrats. Their whole “statement of very concerned” bullshit for four years was excruciating. There was room for improvement. Absolutely. And I think we’ve seen improvement.

    But shitting on them right now is not. helping. You wanna help sink the boat, GTFO. There you go - open water and batshit nazi sharks. Enjoy.

      I’ve stopped believing it’s the Democrat’s fault for sucking and started believing that it’s America’s fault for sucking.

      I’m not trying to sink the boat. The boat is sinking and the Democrats are trying to remodel the dinning hall instead of patch the holes in the hull.

      Every thread about Biden’s support of Israel is bombarded by liberals saying “Trump will be worse!” and “we need Biden to stop Trump!” Which is not an actual policy.

            Cover our eyes? Hardly. How do you think anything gets addressed? Performative outrage on the interwebs? HA!
