Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani sees Trump’s secret weapon—voters too embarrassed to admit their support publicly—fueled by media vilification and attacks on traditional values. He believes this "hidden Trump vote” will be decisive in the 2024 election. Giuiani appeared on Saturday’s WarRoom to discuss his point of view.

The Hidden Trump Vote Phenomenon

Rudy Giuliani, former New York City Mayor and one of Trump’s staunchest allies has pointed out a significant factor that he believes will be pivotal in Trump’s potential victory in 2024: the “hidden Trump vote.” This term refers to individuals who support Donald Trump but do not openly express it. Giuliani argues that media attacks on Trump have pushed many of his supporters into silence. These voters don’t publicly declare their allegiance due to the stigma attached to supporting Trump in the current political climate.

"The more they make him into this monster, the more people vote for him,” Giuliani explains. He claims that this undercurrent of hidden support was evident in previous elections, with Trump often outperforming the polls. Giuliani believes this phenomenon will once again play a major role in the upcoming election.

Media Demonization Drives Hidden Support

According to Giuliani, relentless media attacks on Trump have paradoxically strengthened his base. Rather than turning people away from Trump, these attacks have caused many to silently align with him. Giuliani argues that Trump’s portrayal as a divisive and monstrous figure has driven some of his supporters into hiding, only to express their views at the ballot box.

This dynamic creates what Giuliani describes as a hidden voting bloc—people who may not outwardly display their support for Trump but are likely to cast a vote for him on election day. In 2016, Giuliani recalls that polls had Trump trailing Hillary Clinton by eight points, yet Trump managed to win the election. He attributes this to the hidden vote phenomenon, where public opinion polls fail to capture the true level of support for Trump.

Trump’s Consistent Underdog Status

Giuliani highlighted Trump’s history of defying poll numbers. "He was eight points behind Hillary, and he beat her,” Giuliani reminded listeners, emphasizing how Trump has consistently been underestimated by mainstream pollsters. This hidden support isn’t new, but Giuliani believes it is intensifying in 2024.

Giuliani cites the current polls showing Trump behind Joe Biden by a narrow margin, just as in previous elections. Yet, he predicts that this hidden vote could easily swing the electoral college in Trump’s favor. He argues that many voters, particularly those who feel alienated by current political and cultural trends, are waiting to express their support quietly.

Why It Matters in 2024

Giuliani’s remarks highlight a critical aspect of the 2024 election that both Republicans and Democrats need to consider: many Trump supporters feel disenfranchised or unwilling to discuss their voting preferences openly. Giuliani encourages those voters to “make it too big to rig” by turning out in massive numbers, countering any potential election interference.

According to Giuliani, this hidden vote represents a silent majority and a powerful force driven by dissatisfaction with media, government, and societal narratives. Trump’s ability to tap into this frustration could, once again, result in an unexpected electoral victory.

In short, Giuliani’s message is clear: don’t be fooled by the polls—Trump’s support may be stronger than it seems.
