Most Americans support Trump not arriving at the White House in 2024

According to a recent survey performed by Yahoo and YouGov, which was published in the US publication The Politco, the majority of Americans feel that former US President Trump should not be given the opportunity to run for office again anytime soon.

With many investigations launched into Trump's conduct, 51 percent of registered voters said allegations of wrongdoing were sufficient to prevent the former president from launching another campaign.

By comparison, only 35% of participants believe they should be able to run again.

The survey was conducted immediately after New York Attorney General Lechia James (D-MD) filed a sweeping $250 million lawsuit against Trump, his family's business and three children, allegedly using false financial statements to mislead investors.

That lawsuit was the latest in a series of growing legal threats to Trump, who openly floated the possibility of running for the White House in 2024.

He also faces a federal investigation over his removal of sensitive documents from the White House, as well as a criminal investigation in Georgia focusing on his 

The survey suggests that Trump's legal challenges could politically inflict on him

 even if he is not formally charged or convicted of a crime.

• However, there is some evidence that he remains an active political force.

• The poll found that in a virtual 2024 race against incumbent President Joe Biden

• Trump is only two percentage points behind.

• That's less than 6 points for Biden in a previous poll.

But in another sign of Trump's potential weakness, fewer than half of Republican-leaning voters said they supported Trump's 2024 Republican presidential nomination, while 36 percent said they would support someone else from the party. 

Seventeen per cent said they were unsure.

Former US President Donald Trump is the leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024, according to The Hill.

Despite facing growing legal troubles and a recent FBI raid on his Florida home.

However, the paper considered that this did not mean that Republicans were not considering their options should Trump's political prospects diminish in the coming years.

Trump has been a political force within the Republican Party since his rise began in 2015, and has been open about running for the White House again in 2024.

But he is likely to face fierce competition, especially with polls indicating that Republicans want other contenders.

A July poll by The NewYork Times and the Siena Foundation showed that nearly half of the Republicans surveyed said they wanted someone other than Trump to be their party's nominee in 2024.

The Hill asserted that Trump's role in the Republican Party and potential participation in the Republican primary will pose challenges to anyone he hopes to remove.

John Feehery, a longtime Republican Party strategist and former congressional aide, said:

• A winning contender needs to rival Trump in competition

• able to confront Trump without alienating his voters. "

• Trump is still the "elephant" (Republican Party icon) frontrunner in the race.

• no candidate can win without successfully removing this elephant ".
