Poll: Majority Says Trump Should Drop Out of Presidential Race

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...5980d64c&ei=19

A strong majority of 56% of Americans think former President Donald Trump should drop out of the 2024 presidential race because of his second indictment involving his alleged "willful" possession of classified documents, according to a poll released Friday by the Marist institute of Public Opinion.

But Republicans largely say they'll stick with him anyway, if he chooses to stick it out and seek the Oval Office job again, according to the survey.

The poll was taken after Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith announced 37 charges involving Trump's possession of classified documents and his refusal to hand them over despite requests, a subpoena and a search of his Mar-a-Lago home by federal agents – a historic and unprecedented federal indictment of a former commander in chief.

But the survey found that a partisan thread remains woven through the most recent Trump drama, with a devoted segment of his Republican Party saying the charges won't keep them from backing the current front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination. Even though an overwhelming majority of the public as a whole thinks Trump did something illegal or at least wrong, Republicans aren't letting it affect their votes.

The poll found that 64% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents say they will continue to support Trump if he remains in the race, while 32% of Republicans say they plan to support another GOP candidate in the increasingly crowded primary.

Buttressing Trump's own claims that his legal woes only make him more appealing to his base, the survey found that 76% of Republicans have a favorable opinion of Trump, up from 68% who felt that way in February.

Since the winter, Trump has lost a civil case brought by advice columnist E. Jean Carroll, with a jury finding Trump committed "sexual abuse" of her and defamed her. That jury said Trump should pay Carroll $5 million.

In March, Trump was indicted by a grand jury in New York on charges related to his hush-money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. And more indictments, including federal charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the Capitol and a Georgia case related to whether the former president attempted to overturn the 2020 election results in the swing state.

But Trump's mounting legal problems, while solidifying the views of his political critics, aren't deterring Republican voters and may even be helping Trump, who has cast himself as the victim of a political "witch hunt."

On the question of whether Trump should stay in the race, 56% say no and 43% said yes, the Poughkeepsie-based, independent Marist poll found. The group wanting Trump to leave the race includes 87% of Democrats and 58% of independents. But among Republicans, 83% say the twice-impeached and twice-indicted Trump should stay in the fight for the nomination.

And while the overwhelming majority of Democrats, 78%, and half of independents – up from 41% in March – believe Trump broke the law, Republicans sharply disagree. They survey found that half of Republicans think Trump did nothing wrong – up from 45% in a March Marist survey.

"Time will tell if this pattern holds. But for now, Republicans are grounded on where they stand on Trump regardless of these unfolding events." Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute, said in a statement.

Trump continues to lead in national and most statewide primary polls. His GOP opponents have been largely measured in their criticisms of him, and several have said they would pardon the former president if they themselves were elected to the White House – a sign of the power Trump's base has in the party.

Trump and many of his primary opponents are scheduled to speak next week at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference in Washington.

Donald Trump is bleeding lawyers as quickly as he needs them, with Jim Trusty—once representing the former president in both his criminal documents case and a defamation lawsuit—motioning to end his relationship with Trump altogether on Friday.

Trusty wrote in a motion that he was dropping Trump as a client in his defamation suit against CNN because of “irreconcilable differences” that made it impossible for him to “effectively and properly represent” him.

“The defamation lawsuit against CNN is entering a new phase, as more irrefutable facts are revealed,” a spokesperson for Trump told Politico. “We thank Mr. Trusty for his work on this case and wish him all the best.”

Trump is seeking $475 million in damages from CNN, claiming the network conducted a “campaign of dissuasion in the form of libel and slander.”

CNN has asked the judge for the case to be “dismissed with prejudice.”

The motion to withdraw from Trusty came after he’d already removed himself as counsel to Trump, as did the attorney John Rowley, in the federal documents case brought by special counsel Jack Smith. That criminal case relates to sensitive government documents that Trump allegedly kept after his time in the White House and his alleged obstruction of the federal investigation.

Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges in Florida on Tuesday.

Trump is reportedly still looking to hire more lawyers to beef up his defense, but has been struggling to find someone willing and qualified to take the gig.

I don't think they like the actual guy, but what he represents to them. He is the first republican candidate who has stood up to the democrats since Reagan. Now, Reagan was loved, and by a lot on both sides of the aisle. trump is a tool for the angry voters from the right wing. Gingrich was close to being the guy, but then he did some stupid stuff and disappeared.

He is a small fry grifter, which is why his father has kept him out of his office and campaign.

Moms for Liberty's Hamilton County chapter quotes Hitler in first newsletter
Indianapolis Star

The Hamilton County chapter of Moms for Liberty, a national organization recently listed as an "extremist group" by a civil rights watchdog, introduced its first newsletter Wednesday, The Parent Brigade. Adolf Hitler was quoted on its front cover.

Just below The Parent Brigade's masthead was a quote Hitler used at a Nazi rally in 1935: "He alone, who OWNS the youth, GAINS the future." The pages of the newsletter were posted on the group's Facebook page.

IndyStar reached out to officials with the Hamilton County chapter of Moms for Liberty requesting more context about the quote's usage but had received no response as of 9:20 p.m. Wednesday.


Below Hitler's words on the front page appeared a message from Moms for Liberty national co-founders Tiffany Justice and Tina Descovich, with the headline: "Moms for Liberty will not be be intimidated by hate groups!"

Justice and Descovich appeared to be responding to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which labeled the Florida-headquartered Moms for Liberty and 11 other right-wing “parents' rights” organizations as extremist groups in its annual report, released earlier this month.


“(The movement) is primarily aimed at not wanting to include our hard history, topics of racism, and a very strong push against teaching anything having to do with LGBTQ topics in schools,” Susan Corke, an SPLC official, told USA TODAY.

Page 4 of the Parent Brigade included a mention of Carmel High School. The newsletter decried the school's recent $10,000 award from the "It Gets Better Project," a nonprofit organization whose stated mission is to uplift, empower and connect LGBTQ youth around the globe.

Money awarded to Carmel High School will be used to produce community-wide Pride events at the Carmel Pride festival happening June 25 at Carter Green.

The Parent Brigade newsletter also called out sponsors of Carmel Pride, labeling the event "perversion."
