Former President Donald Trump was a historically unpopular President. His average approval rating never rose above 50 percent throughout his time in office and he's only a handful of Presidents to lose his bid for a second term in office.
Nevertheless, Trump remains the frontrunner for the GOP's 2024 presidential nomination, with multiple possible candidates vowing not to run if he throws his hat in the ring.
But while Republicans may be all-in for a Trump 2024 campaign, the vast majority of this country is against his potential comeback, according to a new poll from Marquette Law School.
In a nationwide survey of adults, Marquette found that 60 percent of self-identified Republicans want Trump to run for a second term—but only 28 percent of all respondents feel the same way.
According to the report, the aversion to a Trump reelection campaign has trickled down to his overall likability:
"The extent of support for a return by Trump to campaigning is also seen in his favorability ratings. Among all adults, 32% have a favorable opinion of him, while 65% have an unfavorable opinion and 3% say they don't have an opinion of him."
The poll generated some buzz on social media.
Those in the third category concern me almost as much as those in the first.https://t.co/WO4av7ziqG pic.twitter.com/Ad0eiklaVI

Are you sure that it's not 91%? https://t.co/bKS40ecGFh

I don't think the press has really ever grappled with how unpopular Trump is. He has his cult, but that's 25-30% of the people. He crawls his way to 46 by virtue of the group of partisans who would vote for the corpse of Goldwater over a Dem. https://t.co/rhxLteIEWP

You would think that would stop him, but I doubt it. https://t.co/DohY9kTycP

But 45% or so will still vote for him if he does, and depending on what key states those 45% are sorted into (and what bureaucratic/quasi-legal chicanery they are able to pull) that might be enough. The federal system is sooooo dysfunctional.

There's increasing apprehension about those who do want him to run.
While that 29% grow increasingly vocal and dangerous. https://t.co/jKJEs7vcqP

25% of Americans are registered Republicans, and if more than half of those vote for him in a primary, he will run again with the blessing of that 13% of the population.
And if he does not win the general, some of those 13% will start shooting people. https://t.co/T6jtVBnpK4

Trump has said he's made his decision but likely won't announce until after the 2022 midterms.
