Former President Trump holds commanding leads over potential Republican challengers in early 2024 primary states Iowa and South Carolina, according to new Fox Business polls. In Iowa, Trump garnered 46% support compared to 16% for Ron DeSantis and 11% for Tim Scott. In South Carolina, Trump received 48% support to 14% for Nikki Haley and 13% for DeSantis. The polls show Trump with wide leads despite being under investigation by the Justice Department for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The strong polling numbers indicate Trump remains a formidable front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination.

We need to rethink democracy

Funnily enough, Trump would very much agree with you.

And you'd both be wrong.

I wasn't only thinking about Trump or USA in my comment. Generally voters these day are only skin thick. They spend their vote like voting for a reality show

People need to know that there is more on the line. I don't think that democracy as such is broken but people exercising it need to be educated about it
