Trump supporters who spoke to NBCNews at a rally Monday in Iowa think an indictment could boost former President Trump's chances of winning the GOP nomination in 2024.
“It just energizes the base even more. This absolutely helps President Trump going into a primary,” one Washington-based Republican operative said in a phone call Saturday afternoon. “I’m not so sure what it does in a general.”
The top prosecutors in Manhattan and Fulton County, Ga., are Democrats. At the federal level, special prosecutor Jack Smith, who is investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection and Trump's handling of classified documents, was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland, who works in a Democratic administration.
Traci Walters, a 52-year-old accountant from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, suggested Monday that Trump is uniquely suited to thrive politically in the face of legal challenges. “He’s been under the microscope for how many — what, 6, 7, 8 years now — they’re not finding anything,” Walters said, describing herself as “100 percent” for Trump in the GOP primary. “I mean, come on, who could survive that, right?”
