Overwhelmingly, most — 52.3 percent — said their preferred Trump top priority is “lowering the cost of living.” Cutting wasteful spending came in a distant second place, with 20.6 percent choosing that priority as their top for the commander in chief. Another 12.6 percent said the top Trump priority should be ending the war in Ukraine, followed by 12.2 percent who said extending the 2017 tax cuts, 12.1 percent who said renegotiating trade deals, 5.5 percent who said cutting regulations to spur job growth, 5.3 percent who said combating antisemitism, 3.2 percent who said protecting girls’ sports, and 3.1 percent who said combatting wokeness. There is not a majority of Republicans who agree on the preferred priority for Trump, as 37 percent said it should be lowering the cost of living, followed by 30 percent who said it should be cutting wasteful spending and 29 percent who said deporting criminal illegal aliens.
