"Trump's Base Strength: Illusion or Reality?"
TL;DR Summary
Despite Donald Trump's strong support in the Republican primaries, there are signs that he may struggle to broaden his appeal for the general election. His base consists mainly of white, older, and non-college-educated voters, while potential supporters of former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley are limited within the GOP. The Republican Party has shifted towards favoring big government programs and retreating from foreign commitments, reflecting Trump's influence. However, Trump faces challenges in appealing to a more diverse electorate and winning over voters who did not support him in previous elections, as well as potential legal issues.
