71% of Trump voters in a new CBS News/YouGov poll said they trusted what Trump tells them over just 63% that say the same about friends and family.

Results from a CBS News poll showed that former Republican President Donald Trump is leading in the GOP primary by a far wider margin over his political rivals with many eye-opening statistics.

The poll revealed that Republican voters would renominate the twice-impeached former president despite him becoming the first current or former U.S. President in history to face criminal charges.


The frontrunner of the 2024 presidential primary led with 61% of Republican voters supporting his White House comeback.

Meanwhile, Trump's rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, was the only other GOP challenger who trailed behind Trump in the double-digit percentage range with 16%.

The remaining GOP hopefuls stayed in the single digits.

Vivek Ramaswamy placed third with 7%, and former Republican Vice President Mike Pence came in fourth with 5%.

Former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson–who recently met the Republican National Committee's qualifications to participate in this week's primary debate in Milwaukee–came in last with 1%.

One of the alarming results from the CBS News poll found that voters trusted Trump more than they did their own family members, conservative media figures, and religious leaders.

In fact, 71% of voters said they believed Trump was solely the trusted source of information–even though he has reportedly told "30,573 untruths" during his time in Office, according to The Washington Post.

That averages to about 21 lies a day in his four years as President of the United States.

This was followed by 63% of voters who believed in their friends and family, 56% who trusted conservative media figures, and 42% who had faith in religious leaders telling the truth.

People found the results deeply disturbing.











The poll also showed that 77% of GOP voters feel Trump's indictment for his corrupt effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election results is politically motivated.

Trump Bizarrely Clashes With Reporter Over Photoshopped 'Tattoo' On Abrego Garcia's Knuckles

President Donald Trump sparked criticism after claiming during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran that an edited photo depicting tattoos of wrongly-deported Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia showed that he has an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang.

Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to MS-13. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.

Leavitt Lashes Out At Amazon Over 'Hostile' Plan To Display Added Tariff Costs For Products On Website

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt lashed out at Amazon over news that the commerce giant planned to display increased "import charges" on items on their Amazon Haul website, essentially showing to customers the extra money they'd have to shell out as a result of President Donald Trump's tariffs.

Trump has escalated a growing trade war by imposing tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports, prompting China to retaliate with its own 125% tariffs on American goods. Additionally, the U.S. has slapped a 10% tax on imports from most other countries, while temporarily suspending higher rates for several nations for 90 days.
