A poll released Wednesday found 53 percent of Republicans named Donald Trump the president they most admire, with Ronald Reagan at 18 percent and Abraham Lincoln at 8 percent, according to Elon University data presented by CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten.
Enten said Republican support still centers on Trump. Trump-endorsed Senate candidates have won their primaries at a 100 percent rate this year and 95 percent since 2022.
After Trump backed Darline Graham for the South Carolina Senate seat following Lindsey Grahams death earlier this year, her Kalshi prediction-market odds rose from 14 percent to more than 50 percent. Enten called that result Trumps strongest primary showing so far.
