Most Republicans view former President Donald Trump as a “strong leader” and “trustworthy,” a recent Morning Consult survey found.
The survey asked respondents to state whether they agree or disagree that Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis have certain attributes, from trustworthiness to mental fitness.
Most Republicans agreed that both candidates are mentally fit, stable, clear communicators, strong leaders, capable of leading the country, honest, trustworthy, and more, but a greater share agreed that Trump exhibited those attributes.
For example, 85 percent agreed that Trump is a strong “leader.” A majority also said the same about DeSantis, but 15 points behind, with 70 percent agreeing that the Sunshine State governor is a “strong leader.”
