If the Democratic Party thought convicting former President Donald Trump was going to make his millions of supporters abandon him, they better think twice.
In fact, he got a six-point jump in approval after being found guilty of 34 counts for falsifying business records.
According to a poll conducted by the Daily Mail and J.L. Partners, 22 percent of voters now view Trump more favorably, while only 16 percent view him more negatively.
The poll was taken just hours after 12 jurors convicted Trump in an unprecedented and politically-motivated move.
The poll also found a four-point net positive impact for Trump among independent voters— who can ultimately decide the outcome of the November election.
“It was done last night right after the verdict, where I’m up six points,” Trump said, referring to the survey. “Six points from what we already were. We were leading fairly substantially. We’re up six points in the DailyMail poll. Now, maybe other polls come out and it says something differently. But a lot of people have predicted it because the public understands.”
James Johnson, who managed the poll, said that the guilty verdict did not change how Americans view Trump; it boosted the former president’s support among voters.
“Our snap poll of a representative sample of likely voters shows that for most Americans the trial has not changed their deep-set views of Trump,” he said. “But amongst those who are open to changing their mind, people feel more positive by a margin of 6 points. That is outside of the margin of the error of the poll and we are saying that is significant.”
“It extends to Independent voters too. Look at the explanations and it is clear why: people feel it was a politically motivated trial and view Trump as a ‘fighter’ against what they see as injustice,” Johnson continued. “We will see how it translates into the voting intention polls in the coming days and weeks. But going by this poll we might not see much change in terms of the fundamentals of this race.”
Trump’s campaign donations also saw a massive increase following the “kangaroo court’s” verdict. The 2024 hopeful raised nearly $35 million in just hours.
“From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million from small-dollar donors,” Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, Trump Campaign senior advisers, said.
Last year when Trump first faced four indictments against him, the 45th president also saw his poll numbers improve. source
There are many things happening right now behind closed doors. There are angry Dems, and there are scared Dems. They certainly did not expect a six- point jump in approval after the jury found Trump guilty.
Pray for Trump’s safety.
I’m a Constitutional Conservative. I’m not angry nor am I scared. What I’m feeling is sadness. I’m sad for this once great country. I’m sad because lefty morons want to shred our Constitution.
I know I’ve quoted this before and I’m sure I’ll quote it again (God willing) but here is part of Benjamin Franklin’s speech from the Constitutional Convention of 1787:
Words of wisdom from Ben& Geri. We’re at the crossroads of history.
It is a sad day because of how far we have strayed from the rule of law. I’m sad for our children and grandchildren should the Lord tarry. Our founding fathers pledged their lives and fortunes for their posterity we have enslaved ours.
Amen
In the back of my mind I’m thinking civil war. The left has to give in or clamp down & they are delusional as in nuts. They woke up the part of this country still sane…don’t think they realize yet we’re not patty-cake Australia but they’ll find out soon enough & we still got our guns. Somebody said, “Live free or die”. I’d rather be with Jesus than these Dem misfits & I don’t care how I get there.
YES – Something tells me that the lefties are beginning to be upset with themselves for being anti-gun. It’s all as it should be – Praise God!
Sometimes God turns the tables and the Demoncrats just may get caught in their own trap. Albeit to the glory of God, NOT man.
Amen and AMEN! I can’t think of anything else to say. I was upset that Trump played along with that plandemic bolognie, but there’s obviously something about him that the elitists can’t handle. Let’s go Brandon!
AMEN!! KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS!
The way you are looking at it is the only way to look at such things — when all is said and done, Jesus Christ is the only One fit to rule. Even the best of men have not been able to give the world lasting good; but the good Jesus brings to the world with His Kingdom will last literally for ever 🙂
Amen. And we must remind ourselves daily that our Lord is all powerful – all knowing – and he is everywhere at every moment and RULES THE UNIVERSE!! Omnipotent – Omniscient – Omnipresent – When you rise from your beds each morning – thank Him for being GOD ALMIGHTY!! HALLELUJAH!! SHALOM B’YESHUA!!
