Whether or not former President Donald Trump is in fact arrested Tuesday or later, apprehension by law enforcement will not substantially impact his support among the Republican faithful, according to a pollster.
“Voters have very well formed opinions of Donald Trump,” John Cluverius, a professor of political science at UMass Lowell and the director of survey research at their Center for Public Opinion, told the Boston Herald on Monday. “I don’t think there are any Republicans who will like Trump less or more because he’s been indicted.”
The 45th President of the United States took to his Truth Social Media platform early Saturday to inform followers he would be arrested on charges brought against him by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, following allegations he made a hush-money payment to a porn star mistress ahead of the 2016 election.
