Lock him up! Public opinion polls show shift toward impeaching Trump

[Bruce_T_Laney]

GOP person says IF it was a secret vote 30 republican senators would vote to impeach

Well it is not and what it says is they refuse to stand up and be held accountable for their vote.

Why would they need a secret vote if they believe Trump should be removed.

Just do it and deal with it...

Bunch of cowards if they wish they could do s secret ballot to convict...

Sure they are cowards Afraid of Trump hurting their re-election chances and afraid of those who will vote for trump even if he shot some one on 5th ave

Yeah, they are more worried about their Seat in the Senate than doing what they believe in...

As for Trumpsters they will not do anything because Pence become President and then your nightmares begin...

I am a Fiscal Conservative that is a Social Liberal and Trump is a nightmare for me...

But

I enjoy pissing on partisan hacks...

Lock the lying, cheating, traitor Donald Trump up.

Throw the bum in solitary confinement.

The public mood is swinging against Trump as more and more dirt is exposed about Donald Trump.

The hidden dirt on Russia and Saudi Arabia is not yet exposed but the Administration is leaking like a sieve and it will not be long before rats squeal before jumping off SS Trump before it sinks.

There has never been a dirtier politician or POTUS than Donald Trump.

If he's lucky, the voters will fire him before impeachment convicts him.

Public opinion polls show shift toward impeaching Trump

Public opinion polls show shift toward impeaching Trump

Public opinion is shifting in favor of Democrats on impeachment, with new polls showing about half the nation supports a House inquiry into President Trump after revelations he pressured the Ukrainian president to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden.

The latest NPR-PBS NewsHour-Marist poll found 49 percent approval for impeachment, against 46 percent who said they disapprove. That’s a 10-point jump in favor of impeachment over the same survey from April, around the time that former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian election interference was released.

A Politico-Morning Consult survey found a similar bounce in a short period of time, with support for impeachment spiking 7 points in the week since the Ukrainian revelations came to light, although only 36 percent in that poll said they support impeachment, compared to 49 percent who said they oppose.
The latest Hill-Harris X survey found support for impeachment rising 12 points to 47 percent, against 42 percent who oppose.

And a Harvard CAPS-Harris survey released on Thursday shortly before the release of a whistleblower complaint confirmed the upward trend toward impeachment.

That survey found the public split at 50-50 on whether Trump should be impeached for “pressuring” the Ukrainian president to investigate Biden’s dealings in the country, including 52 percent of independents. The same poll conducted in July, around the time of Mueller’s testimony to Congress, found only 40 percent of voters overall and 24 percent of independents backing impeachment.

“The poll shows that the public has serious concern over the Trump actions,” said Mark Penn, the co-director of the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll.

“These are generally higher numbers than during the Mueller investigation and most consider his actions inappropriate, even if not impeachable,” he said.
Still, there are some soft spots in the polling for Democrats, particularly among independents and voters in the suburbs, who have recently looked like a potential area of strength for the party.
The NPR survey found that 44 percent of independents support impeachment, against 50 percent who said they oppose it.
And suburban voters are evenly divided, with 48 percent saying they approve and 49 percent saying they disapprove.
Democrats have been hoping to pick up new House seats in suburban districts, where women appear to be turning against the president and fast-changing demographic trends have turned once reliably Republican districts a deeper shade of purple.
“The only poll that will really matter is after the House votes to impeach him, only then will we know if independents in key states think he should be impeached,” said one Democratic operative. “If it’s a no, we lose. If it’s a yes, then we have a chance. I think if the election were tomorrow, the ‘witch hunt’ narrative is still stronger than the argument that he’s used his office for personal gain. We’ll see.”
At the moment, Republicans note that much of the swing in public opinion has been driven by Democrats, who were worried about the political fallout but have rallied behind Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) after she decided to go all in.
“There has been a shift in favor of impeachment in the latest polls, but a lot of that shift has come among Democrats,” said Chris Wilson, a veteran Republican pollster and CEO of WPA Intelligence. “Around one-in-five Democrats were opposed to impeachment, probably because they thought it would be bad politically, right up to the point where it became the official Democratic position. Now all of those Dems are falling in line.”
Democrats had been hesitant to launch an impeachment inquiry, largely because they worried about the electoral consequences of a dramatic showdown with the White House only 13 months out from Election Day.
There are 44 “frontline” Democrats in the House considered vulnerable in 2020, 25 of whom are up for reelection in districts that Trump carried in 2016. Democrats have a 37-seat advantage in the House.
Following the Ukraine revelations, Rep. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), the chairman of the House campaign arm, predicted impeachment would cost Democrats their majority in the House.
But Democrats are bullish on the early returns they’ve seen from impeachment polling, believing that public opinion will follow them if they continue to make the case.
Democrats say the controversy in Ukraine is different from the Russia probe, believing it represents a clear cut and simple case about how the president ordered an investigation into a political opponent and the White House sought to cover it up.
“It is a simpler story to tell. It’s also more egregious,” said Kelly Dietrich, a Democratic fundraiser and the CEO of the National Democratic Training Committee.
“He invited a foreign government to interfere in our elections to investigate a political rival. Couple that with the fact that — look, I think there’s also a little bit of just fatigue on the guy. His favorable numbers aren’t going anywhere … The narrative from the GOP is that Democrats are weak. Bullshit. We’re standing up now. We’re holding people accountable,” Dietrich added.
The whistleblower revelations have brought around some Democrats who were once impeachment skeptics, such as Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), a White House contender who had previously warned that an impeachment inquiry would rip the country apart.
But Republicans insist that Democrats are overplaying their hand here, believing that the Ukraine issue is an easy one to muddy up.
The pro-Trump super PAC Great America is already putting six-figures behind an advertisement demanding Congress investigate Biden’s role in the firing of a Ukraine prosecutor, although there is no evidence of wrongdoing here.
GOP operatives interviewed by The Hill say the president and his campaign aren’t just grandstanding when they say they’ve been handed an electoral gift.
They believe the issue will supercharge Trump’s base, cause Democrats to abandon their focus on the economy and health care, and turn off the independents that have been gravitating away from the president.
And they say that Democrats can kiss their electoral hopes goodbye in places like Texas, where only a few weeks ago they were talking about how the state was moving away from Republicans.
“Democrats are right to worry about the politics of impeachment,” Wilson said. “Even if they impeach the president, it seems clear right now that the Senate won't remove him. So they risk being seen by their voters as ineffective while firing up the Trump base by trying to overturn the 2016 election.”

Oh, sorry. Those people dont get to vote on impeachment. Bummer.

Democrats can't win in the ballot box so they keep their crazy base excited with fake polls. It's nothing new, the Russians tried the same thing.

The surveillance system that you love and adore is and has been used on the peasants. Even on sites like this. So I give em a show. People have been destroyed by those who abuse it. And it is being abused to try to take down a President. Those in the Lake of Fire know.

Democrats can't win in the ballot box

The democrats got 8 million more votes than republicans in the 2018 election.

Are you so biased to actually believe the President over all the evidence his blackmail attempts bring? Really?? Please tell me you don't
