National Survey of 995 U.S. Likely Voters
Conducted July 15-16, 2024

By Rasmussen Reports

 

1* Will the recent assassination attempt against Donald Trump make it more likely or less likely that Trump wins this year’s presidential election? Or will the assassination attempt not make much difference in the outcome of the election?

 

 

2* Which is more likely, that the attempted assassination of Donald Trump was mainly caused by the gunman’s mental health problems, or that it was mainly caused by the rhetoric of Trump’s political opponents?

 

 

3* Do you agree or disagree with this statement: “The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. That rhetoric led directly to President Trump's attempted assassination”?
