- Former President Donald Trump has taken a 30-point lead over his next closest possible 2024 GOP presidential primary competitor and now has majority support in a crowded field, a new poll from Emerson College released on Tuesday shows.
- The survey, taken entirely after Trump’s highly publicized visit last week to East Palestine, Ohio, shows Trump at 55 percent–30 points higher than Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is down at 25 percent — meaning Trump has now crossed the majority threshold in national GOP primary polling.
- The poll of a 10-way race shows Trump and DeSantis as the only two possibilities breaking into double digits.
