Voter support for impeachment matched its highest point of Donald Trump’s presidency as he faced a whistleblower allegation that he pressured Ukraine’s president to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, with more impeachment supporters than ever before saying he committed an impeachable offense, according to Morning Consult/Politico polling.
The new Sept. 24-26 poll of 1,640 registered voters — conducted as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) endorsed an impeachment inquiry and details emerged about the president’s pressure on Ukraine — found the public divided at 43 percent on the question of whether Congress should begin proceedings to remove Trump from office, a net swing of 13 percentage points in favor of impeachment since a poll conducted over the weekend. The figure for support rose 7 points, while opposition dropped 6 points.
As Zandardad would say, "That's a 13-point swing in four days. He''s in trouble."
A big shift among Democrats certainly (+13 and -5%) but a significant net shift among independents (+6 and -9) and yes, even the GOP (+5 and -4).
"Trump asked a foreign leader to interfere in the 2020 election" is really simple to understand. "Then they tried to cover it up" is also easy to understand. Trump's already admitted to both.
The longer he keeps running his mouth and doing things like threatening whistleblowers and melting down on national TV, the easier this is going to get.
