Minorities line up behind ... Donald Trump​

New poll shows billionaire solidifying support

Published: 1 day ago

Pundits might point to billionaire Donald Trump’s huge lead in the GOP presidential primary race as being the result of his generally anti-Washington, anti-government, anti-establishment, anti-politically correct attitude.

If so, it’s not just whites who are ticked at the bureaucracy, but minorities too.

Because a new poll, which still has Trump leading the race, shows 40 percent of blacks are lining up behind Trump, as are 45 percent of Hispanics, and even nearly 19 percent of Asians.

Blacks and Hispanics, in fact, even support Trump at a higher level than whites.

The results are from a new WND/Clout poll by Clout Research, a national opinion research firm in Columbus, Ohio. The telephone survey of registered voters was taken Dec. 18-27, except for the holiday, and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.35 percentage points.

Only Dr. Ben Carson pulled more support from the black community than Trump, at 50 percent, and no one had more support from Hispanics than Trump. Among Asians, 37.5 percent supported Sen. Marco Rubio, with Sen. Ted Cruz matching Trump’s 18.8 percent.

Among whites, Trump was far and away the leader, with 37.7 percent of the respondents. Cruz was second at 25.1 percent.

The rankings put Trump in the No. 1 slot, Cruz second at 23.3 percent, Rubio third at 10.1, Carson fourth at 9.4 percent, and Jeb Bush fifth at six percent.

Explained Fritz Wenzel, chief of Clout Polling, “The Republican presidential primary preference nationally remains unchanged through the Christmas holiday and heading into the New Year, as Donald Trump continues to lead by double digits.

“The newish development of Sen. Ted Cruz rising and now solidifying his top-tier stature is likely going to remain for the coming weeks before the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary. But the rise of Cruz signals nothing new in this race, as voters continue to voice their complete dissatisfaction with the GOP establishment. Cruz merely supplanted Carson as a more conservative outsider alternative to Trump.”

He said a key will be whether Republicans, whose divisions have been opened by Trump’s brash criticism of the establishment and refusal to go along, can come together.

“There really is just one more act to come and question to be answered before the nomination is sealed: ‘Will the establishment coalesce behind one moderate candidate and mount a serious challenge, or will they remain divided and be conquered?’” Wenzel said.

“For this challenge to develop, three of four candidates – Bush, Rubio, Kasich and Christie – would have to step aside, and given the stakes involved, it is hard to imagine that happening in time to make a difference. The clock has now become a serious factor in this race.”

He said moderates like Trump, with a sizable chunk also favoring Marco Rubio, while conservatives favor Cruz.

“Cruz does so badly among moderates that it is hard to make a case for him as the consensus candidate. Trump’s ability at this stage of the game to gain solid support among all demographic groups makes him a significant favorite to win the nomination. It is interesting to note that there is a significant gender gap inside the race for the GOP nomination – as Trump wins only 29 percent support among men but wins 47 percent support among women who will be voting in the GOP primary elections. Among conservative women voting in the GOP primaries, Trump wins 53 percent support,” Wenzel reported.

The survey shows Trump collecting nearly 40 percent of the GOP support, but also 31 percent of the independents and even 26-plus percent of the Democrats.

While Ohio Gov. John Kasich gets 31 percent of the Democrats who responded to the poll, most other candidates share tiny fractions. Only Cruz was event close to Trump, with 21 percent of the Democrats, 24 percent of the GOP and 21 percent of the independents.

It showed Trump dominates among those voters who think of themselves as very liberal or liberal, with 60 percent and 40 percent support, respectively. But he’s no slouch among the moderate and conservatives either, with support higher than 41 percent in each group.

The rest of the support was splintered among the candidates.

The question: “If you were voting today in your state’s primary or caucus election for the Republican nomination for president, and the candidates were, in alphabetical order, Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Carly Fiorina, John Kasich, Marco Rubio and Donald Trump, for whom would you vote?”

Among men and women, Trump also had far and away leads, with 30 percent of the men and more than 46 percent of the women. Only Cruz was within sight, with about 23 percent of support from each group.

Trump dominated, too, among the religious categories, getting 40 percent support from Protestants, 30 percent from Catholics, 40 percent of Jews and more. Trump also dominated among the age groups as well as across all geographic regions in the country

Trust the government? Maybe you shouldn’t. Read the details in “Lies the Government Told You,” by Judge Andrew Napolitano.

Question 3: If you were voting today in your state’s primary or caucus election for the Republican nomination for president, and the candidates were, in alphabetical order, Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Carly Fiorina, John Kasich, Marco Rubio and Donald Trump, for whom would you vote?”

According to a new Harvard poll, most registered voters believe that the indictment of former President Donald Trump was politically motivated and election interference.​

Additionally, the poll found that 57 percent of registered voters believe that Trump will be acquitted.
The survey found that 55 percent of Americans say Trump’s indictment is politically motivated, including 83 percent of Republicans and 55 percent of Independents.
Harvard Harris Poll:

Additionally, 56 percent of voters across the political spectrum consider Trump’s federal indictment to be an interference by the Justice Department in the 2024 Election. Only 44 percent of those polled said the indictment was “the fair application of the law.”

The pollsters also questioned voters about Joe Biden’s similarly mishandled documents and Hillary Clinton’s email scandal.

“A majority of 65 percent of respondents believe Biden ‘mishandled’ classified material, while 72 percent think Clinton did, with 69 percent saying she ‘obstructed justice’ by acid-washing her emails,” Breitbart News reports.
The pollsters asked voters, “Do you think indicting a former president for taking classified documents after leaving office, something done by Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and other senior officials, is a fair application justice or selective prosecution?”
A 53 percent majority responded that going after Trump is a “selective prosecution.”
The Harvard/Harris poll questioned 2,090 registered voters online from June 14-15.
 

A Majority of Americans Have Had Enough - No More U.S. Tax Dollars To Ukraine​

A Majority of Americans Have Had Enough - No More U.S. Tax Dollars To Ukraine

ALEX WONG / GETTY IMAGES
A new poll has found that 55 percent of the American people across party lines have found something that they can agree upon. A majority of the nation has had enough and said the U.S. Congress should not authorize additional funding to support the war in Ukraine.
According to the CNN/SSRS poll cited by The Daily Wire, 45 percent of the American people in bipartisan terms said that the Biden administration should continue its ongoing funding of Ukraine's war efforts against Russia, while 51 percent believe that the United States has already done enough and conversely, 48 percent say we should do more.

To say this is a massive collapse in public support is an understatement given that in February 2022, 62 percent of Americans polled said Congress should do more.

Where the surprising bipartisanship fails is when we come to the funding question itself. More or less, the issue is a partisan one with more Democrats supporting the ongoing funding of the war than Republicans by far. In contrast, the majority of Democrats hold the opposite view, with 62 percent supporting additional funding and asserting that the US should do more.
Republicans overwhelmingly argue against authorizing new funding (71 percent) and contend that the U.S. has already done enough to aid Ukraine (59 percent).

However, fascinatingly nearly 80 percent of respondents overall have expressed concerns that the war will continue without a resolution indefinitely — including 82 percent of Democrats, 75 percent of independents, and 73 percent of Republicans.
According to The Daily Wire, the divide becomes even more pronounced regarding how the U.S. should assist Ukraine.
"A significant partisan divide is observed when it comes to providing weapons to Ukraine, with 61% of Democrats in favor, compared to 39% of independents and only 30% of Republicans. As for deploying US military forces to participate in combat operations, less than 20% of individuals from all parties endorse the idea (19% Democrats, 18% independents, and 16% Republicans)."

Most alarming for the proponents of American involvement in the Russo-Ukrainian War must be the polling response with a broad 80 percent rejection of any combat deployment of US military forces to Ukraine against Russia. Among those polled, 19 percent of Democrats, 18 percent of independents, and 16 percent of Republicans support the concept.

The poll also reveals that 53 percent of Americans across party lines disapprove of how President Joe Biden is handling the situation in Ukraine, 56 percent disapprove of his handling of U.S. relations with Russia, and 57 percent disapprove of his handling of relations with China.

In spite of it all, the American people are still largely concerned about the war in Ukraine in general and specifically that it will:
  1. "Lead to Russian attacks elsewhere" 64 percent
  2. "Lead to a broader war in Europe" 59 percent
  3. "Threaten U.S. National Security" 56 percent

According to a new poll from Redfield & Wilton Strategies, 64% of eligible voters think Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell should resign, 8% opposed, and the rest “neither agree nor disagree” or “don’t know.”

71% of people who voted for Trump in 2020 feel McConnell should step down.
McConnel has struggled with a number of health issues lately, including a fall and a head injury. Earlier this month, McConnell froze up during a press briefing.

During a recent interview, former President Trump called the event “sad.”
“Well, I thought it was sad. At the same time. I think it’s a shame that he went so far out to give Green New Deal money to Biden and the Democrats,” he said, adding, “But that was too bad. That was actually a sad thing to see. He had a bad fall, I guess and probably after effect of that, but it was also sad that he gave trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars to the Democrats to waste on the green New Deal.”
 

71% Of Americans Say Trump Can't Get An Impartial Jury: Survey​

BY TYLER DURDEN

A majority of Americans, more than seven in 10, don't think President Donald Trump can get an impartial jury in his ongoing legal battles according to a new survey about Americans' trust in the broader legal system.

The poll, conducted by Ipsos, surveyed Americans from the general population and the population of those who have served on juries in the past 10 years to learn their attitudes toward various aspects of the criminal justice system.
The poll found that former jurors were more likely than the general population to trust in the criminal justice system as a whole, including attorneys across all fields, judges, and state and local law enforcement.
They also had a nearly 20 percent more favorable view of their fellow citizens serving on juries than their peers: 76 percent of former jurors reported "a great deal" or "a fair amount" of trust in jurors, compared to 58 percent of non-jurors—the highest level of trust across both groups for all legal positions discussed.
But Americans are less optimistic about former President Donald Trump's chances of receiving an impartial jury in one of the cases against him relating to his alleged illegal retention of classified documents. Only the documents case, one of four ongoing trials against the former president, was asked about.
In the survey, 1,017 members of the general population—those who haven't served on a jury in the past 10 years—were asked, "If the cases against Donald Trump go to trial, how confident are you, if at all, that the court will be able to find and seat jurors willing to put aside their prior beliefs about Donald Trump and decide the case based on the evidence presented?"
Overall, 71 percent of those said they were not confident, including 30 percent who said they were "not at all confident" of this outcome and 41 percent who said they were "not too confident" about an impartial jury.
Only 28 percent expressed confidence that President Trump's jurors could put aside their past perspectives. And the majority of those answering this way, 23 percent, said they were only "somewhat confident" of this outcome. Only five percent said they were "very confident" that President Trump could receive an unbiased jury.
Over the past several decades, Americans' faith in the jury process, a constitutional pillar of American political life, has remained strong despite a corollary decrease in Americans' trust of other types of political and legal institutions.
Faith in the jury process has survived several blows, including the acquittal of O.J. Simpson, who many believed to have murdered his wife and her friend, who was later acquitted. Politically-fraught outcomes, including the acquittal of George Zimmerman and Kyle Rittenhouse, and the conviction of Derek Chauvin on murder charges related to George Floyd's death, have also failed to shake Americans' core belief in the jury system.
However, the politically fraught criminal cases of the 45th president could erode faith in the system, as members of both the pro-Trump and anti-Trump factions will be unlikely to accept a jury outcome they think was unfair.

Most Cases in Left-Wing Jurisdictions​

This problem is only compounded by the political composition of the jurisdictions where President Trump will be tried, as most lean substantially to the left on the political spectrum.
The case related to President Trump's handling of classified documents will likely take place in Fort Pierce, Florida, part of a county that voted for President Trump in 2020, with jurors pulled from nearby areas.
But other cases against President Trump will be carried out in less favorable political environments.
The first criminal case against him, alleging that he paid adult performer Stormy Daniels hush money to cover up an affair in contravention of campaign finance law, will take place in Manhattan—where, in 2020, 86.7 percent of residents voted for President Joe Biden.
Another case filed against President Trump alleges that he sought to illegally overturn the 2020 election. That case will be held in Washington, D.C.—a place where President Trump received only 5.4 percent of the popular vote in 2020 compared to 92.2 percent for President Biden, and where many residents harbor memories and resentment over the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol breach.
The most recent case filed against President Trump was filed in Fulton County, one of the counties of the greater Atlanta area where President Biden won 72.6 percent of the vote. Nearby counties similarly voted for President Biden by wide margins.
Given the political bent of the areas where the cases are being held, it is even more likely that supporters of President Trump will view any jury pool as suspect.

Here are where things stand in Trump's civil fraud case and criminal hush money trial​

Former President Donald Trump had a big legal day on Monday where some major movements happened in the civil fraud and hush money cases against him.
Here's what to know about each case:

Hush money case: Trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records, stemming from reimbursements made to Trump’s former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen for hush money payments he made before the 2016 election to cover up an alleged affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels.
The former president has pleaded not guilty and denied the affair.
During a hearing in New York on Monday, which Trump attended, Judge Juan Merchan said the criminal trial against the former president will begin on April 15 with jury selection. The judge dismissed the Trump’s motion to toss out the indictment altogether or delay the trial further.

Civil fraud case: A New York appeals court ruled Trump must pay a $175 million bond as he appeals the civil fraud judgment against him. He also was given 10 additional days to post the bond.
It’s a major lifeline for the former president, who, along with his adult sons and his company, were fined more than $464 million, which was due today, after Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump and his co-defendants fraudulently inflated the value of his assets.
The ruling staves off the prospect, for now, of New York Attorney General Letitia James seeking to seize the former president’s property to enforce the judgment against him.
