Adam Geller, President of National Research, Holmdel, a pollster for President Trump told the gathered Republicans that, as in the 2016 election, a large part of the electorate are hidden Trump supporters. “Republicans who run away from the president will struggle in November,” Geller said. “Those who stand with him will do just fine.”
