RCP polling here:
Republican primary standings, aggregated polls: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls...-7548.html
Democrat standings, again aggregated: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls...-8171.html
These are some of the same polls that predicted a red wave in the last go ‘round. Let’s hope history repeats itself.
Trump is clearly a lock for the R nomination, but won’t win in general.

Trumps going to lose but it's going to be close maybe within a few million votes. I think the biggest reason will be he's going to have to divide his time too much to campaign effectively.

Hopefully Trump will only be able to campaign from behind a plexiglass window in a prison somewhere.
It makes me queasy to even think about the upcoming pre-election circus.

One slight dip in the economy, and Trump could absolutely win.
Republicans are also hoping to leverage the dumpster fire that is Hunter Biden to the max.
I doubt very much that the US economy is going to be much of a factor in this one. Trump can’t win without independents, and they appear to be troubled by the indictments.
In addition, a LOT of Gen Z voters will be voting for the first time in 2024.
