Former President Trump holds commanding leads over potential Republican challengers in early 2024 primary states Iowa and South Carolina, according to new Fox Business polls. In Iowa, Trump garnered 46% support compared to 16% for Ron DeSantis and 11% for Tim Scott. In South Carolina, Trump received 48% support to 14% for Nikki Haley and 13% for DeSantis. The polls show Trump with wide leads despite being under investigation by the Justice Department for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The strong polling numbers indicate Trump remains a formidable front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination.

      He convinced his supporters a long time ago that anything against him is a hoax or witch hunt or the deep state out to get him or whatever, so they’ll vote for him regardless. They don’t care he’ll be in trial.

        It’s actually taken as a sign he’s doing something right, because he’s being “”“persecuted”“”
