While Donald Trump is still dominating the 2024 Republican primary in national polls, signs of trouble are starting to emerge as his legal peril mounts.
An NPR/PBS/Marist poll released Friday found a 9-point drop since last month among Republicans and GOP-leaning independents who say Trump has done "nothing wrong," from 50% to 41%.
Trump also lost support from the Republican cohort, with 58% now saying they are likely to back Trump in the primary, down 6 points from 64% last month.
The survey was in the field from July 24 - 27, before Thursday afternoon’s announcement of a superseding indictment in the classified documents case added more heft to Trump's criminal count haul.
Normally, a stand-alone poll finding notable swings from one month to the next is cause for caution. But in this case, the NPR/PBS/Marist poll isn't a singular outlier.
