Most Voters Have Been Offended by Trump. It’s Not Always a Deal Breaker.

The vast majority of voters across the United States say they have been offended at some point by former President Donald J. Trump. But a sizable number of those voters say that has not stopped them from supporting him.

Overall, 70 percent of voters said that the former president had ever offended them, according to new polling from The New York Times and Siena College.

But big differences emerge when voters were asked when they were offended.

Nearly half — 46 percent — of the group said that they had been offended recently. Ms. Harris won that group by a margin of more than 80 percentage points.

But it was a different story among the 23 percent who said that they had been offended by Mr. Trump, but further in the past. Mr. Trump won that group by roughly 40 percentage points.
