Republican debate: Six of the eight candidates raise hands to support Trump if convicted

Only two of the eight 2024 presidential candidates kept their hands down when asked if they would support former President Donald Trump if he is convicted in one or more of his four criminal cases.

When asked by Fox News moderators who would support Trump as the GOP presidential candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy confidently put his hand up, followed by former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND), and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC).

After looking around, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) put his hand up, followed by former Vice President Mike Pence. Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie appeared to put his hand up, later clarifying that he was shaking his finger.
