A new poll has revealed changing attitudes to Trump from his Republican supporters.

One in three Republicans now think Donald Trump was wrong candidate choice

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.

  • How many had their choice made for them before they even had a chance to vote in a primary?

    Nikki Haley was the last to drop out on March 6th, when there were still dozens of primaries to go.

    I'd love to see a national primary. But people complain... But... but... it's not fair to small candidates who can't run a national campaign...

    Yeah, if you can't run a national campaign, you have no business being President either.

    • If we're going to be proposing things that will never happen: Total public funding of elections, so everybody can run a national campaign if they get enough signatures.

      That or we get a watery tart to lob a scimitar at someone.
