President Donald Trump will likely be the GOP's candidate for a 2024 run, said a poll from POLITICO/Morning Consult released Tuesday.

According to the poll, Trump received 53% support from self-identified Republicans and GOP-leaning independents.

This rate of support puts him at the lead if compared to other possible GOP candidates like Vice President Mike Pence who received 12% support, his son Donald Trump Jr. who received 8% and Nikki Haley and Sens. Tom Cotton, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley and Mitt Romney who had less than 5%, reported Daily Caller.

Not part of the list of potential candidates was White House national security adviser Rober O'Brien, who was best known for being a hostage negotiator. According to reports, O'Brien has shown interest in a presidential bid.

The survey involved 765 GOP voters. It was conducted from November 21 to 23 online among 1,990 voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.

Third GOP Nomination for Trump

If Trump wants to retry with the White House in 2024, it will be his third nomination in a row, noted a report from New York Post.

With the ongoing legal challenges to election results, if officials find that Democratic presidential nominee indeed won the election, Trump will be allowed to run again in 2024.

In addition to that, he would be the second president to win two non-consecutive terms after former President Grover Cleveland who won in 1885 and 1893.

Even though he already gave the General Services Administration permission to push through with the transition process, Trump still refused to formally offer concession to the race.

But GSA head Emily Murphy said in a letter addressed to Biden that she decided to begin the transition process on her own, not influenced by anyone else.

There was pressure on the GSA from all sides to jumpstart the transition process-from the Democrats who questioned why it hasn't started yet, to Republican senators who have also demanded an acknowledgement of Trump's defeat, reported Politico.

Despite the start of the transition, Trump vowed that he will still be challenging the results of the election, since media projections showed that Biden already met the 270 votes needed.

Democrats showed overwhelming support in Biden's handling of the transition, with 62% of voters approving. Meanwhile, Republicans suffered a drop to 27% according to the poll.

Trump's Support Waves Doesn't Falter

If Trump does decide to run once more in 2024, he will prove himself to be a daunting opponent again.

As his support base continues to show unwavering support for him, he is not only cutting down the chances of other GOP hopefuls but will also likely criticize them.

The tactic has proven itself costly for other Republican candidates in the past.

He is expected to remain at the top of the Republican Party even if he has to leave the White House in January.

Trump also launched the Save America leadership PAC which may help in fundraising and organizing for a possible election run.
