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.

    Better headline: 2 out of 3 Republicans (the party of “Law and Order”) support a candidate convicted of 34 felonies. And 3 out of 3 will still vote for him in the general election.

    The original headline is just them saying I wish there was something better, but we got what we got. Which is the same thing I am saying on the left.
