WASHINGTON – A majority of Americans do not think former President Donald Trump should be allowed to hold elected office in the future, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll.
Two days ago, the Senate acquitted Trump for a second time during a historic impeachment trial, where he was charged with inciting the deadly insurrection Jan. 6 at the Capitol. Respondents were surveyed last week, many before the Senate voted on a verdict.
A majority of Americans, 55%, say that even though Trump was acquitted in the Senate, meaning he can run for office in 2024 if he wishes, he should not be allowed to hold elected office again. Forty-three percent of those polled disagreed.
75 Percent of Republicans Want Trump to Play Big Role in GOP: Survey
Three-quarters of Republicans told Quinnipiac University pollsters that they want former President Donald Trump to play a prominent role in the Republican Party, according to a survey released two days after Trump’s acquittal.
The national poll, which was carried out on a representative sample of 1,056 adults, found that 75 percent of Republican respondents said Trump should play a major role in the GOP going forward, with that number dropping to 34 percent if all categories of respondents are considered.
At the same time, 87 percent of Republicans said they think Trump should not be barred from holding future office, with that number dropping to 43 percent if Democrats and Independents are included in the polling mix.
