A Reuters/Ipsos poll found that about half of Republicans believe the U.S. needs a strong president with minimal interference from courts and Congress, potentially supporting Donald Trump’s argument for fewer legal constraints if re-elected.
The poll showed a divided Republican Party on the limits of presidential power, with 46% supporting a strong president ruling with limited interference.

The poll also revealed that Trump and Biden were neck-and-neck in support, with Trump’s legal challenges posing a risk to his presidential aspirations.
The poll reported that 46% of Republicans believe, “the country is in a crisis and needs a strong president who should be allowed to rule without too much interference from courts and Congress.”
Matthew MacWilliams, a political scientist said, “It’s hard to have a democracy when that attitude is afoot.”
The poll reported that 69% of Republicans believe that “illegal immigrants should be arrested and put in detention camps while awaiting deportation hearings.”
Only 21% of Democrats agreed with that statement.
Additionally, a significant portion of Republicans support a hardline immigration policy aligned with Trump’s campaign.
