Donald Trump "weakest Republican" for 2024 election: GOP pollster
Trump's GOP presidential rivals would easily "crush" President Joe Biden, according to a prominent Republican pollster.
Can we please stop obsessing over the polls when we still have a full year of campaigning to get through? Let's at least hold off until Super Tuesday, okay?
You don't have to obsess over the polls, but polling data is valuable information for those who vote in primaries.
If a primary voter likes three candidates more or less equally, but one polls really bad and another really well, then that can help make an informed decision to select the candidate with the best chances to win the general.
This polling won't help you vote in the primaries. In the primaries you vote for whomever you feel is the top candidate. Then in the general you vote for the best candidate left. This is just click bait.
Or the convictions come in.
It’ll be interesting to see how that changed things. Particularly in Georgia. The “party of states rights” wouldn’t dare break trump out of jail… would they?
Of course they would.
From Francis Wilhoit: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

Seriously, we are on the cusp of being beating over the metaphorical head with all the political nonsense for the next year...let's enjoy the small moments of peace we have.
Well, that does seem to be what this guy is saying. The polls indicate Trump would win the primary and is leading or equal with Biden, this guy says otherwise.
"He's stronger than Biden." "He's weaker than his Republican opponents (none of whom could beat Biden)." "He's strong." "He's weak."
FFS, make up your mind. This is why these polls don't fucking mean shit.
Fascism requires that you be strong enough to defend against your foes, while the foes have the power to keep you down.
That's true, but this isn't Fascism. This is pollsters coming to wildly different conclusions, hence my frustration at both the disparate polls and polling this far out from the election.
Plus, Trump gets a defacto 30% of the GOP vote, because that's how many of them are his cultists. There is no fucking way he's weaker than his Republican challengers.
Thank you!
Trump being weak is an opinion of one man.
just fucking vote plz
Fuck Trump and all, but these polls are asinine click bait
Can we trust these polls? Feels like 2016 all over again
Lesson from today: If Trump is on the ballot next year, the GOP is looking at a wipeout of epic proportions up and down the ballot. Anyone remotely associated with him in non-blood-red states/districts (and even some red ones) will be fortunate to eek out a win. Republicans can’t win without moderates & independents, and his name is mud with them. Hatred for Trump nationally is much stronger than even peoples’ own economic self interest. Millions will vote against him and the candidates he endorses, even to their own detriment. Today is a harbinger of things to come if Republicans stay on this path.
Nixon fed the base beer. Reagan made it grain alcohol punch, and Bush Jr. broke out the moonshine. Trump is meth. His people will vote for him no matter what.
Not sure why this is even being shared. The story is more that this guy who has been wrong in the past is disagreeing with the current polling.
Thoughts and prayers 🙏 🌈
I'll take it lmao
I keep hearing about these young voters who aren't backing Biden in articles I've read. Can anyone share some perspective on what might be the reasoning here?
Pollsters have no fucking idea whats going on and just send out regular feelers to a tiny fraction of americans to see how they would vote at that given time, often with loaded questions to help sway the numbers in which ever way they want the result to land.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former President Donald Trump is the "weakest" major Republican candidate running in the 2024 presidential election, according to GOP pollster Frank Luntz.
The ex-president is also leading or even with President Joe Biden in most polls, despite much of his attention recently being focused on the avalanche of legal issues that he is facing, including 91 felony criminal counts and multiple civil lawsuits.
"I don't understand for the life of me why [Senate Majority Leader] Chuck Schumer and why [House Minority Leader] Hakeem Jeffries do not go to the White House and say, 'Sir, you've been a great president, you've done a good job for us, but it's time to move on," Luntz said.
Luntz incorrectly predicted that Republicans would sweep last year's midterm elections by historic margins, claiming that they would achieve "between 233-240 House seats" and win back the Senate.
In reality, Republicans performed far worse than most political observers predicted, winning back the House by a smaller-than-expected margin and remaining in the minority in the Senate while Democrats picked up a seat.
Many observers, including some Republicans, did attribute the Republican 2022 midterm failure to Trump's involvement, especially since high-profile Trump-backed GOP candidates including Mehmet Oz and Herschel Walker lost races that tilted control of the Senate.
