New CNN Poll: Majority Now Against Impeaching Trump

[Synthaholic]

It’s not a popularity poll. It’s not a public opinion poll. If there is evidence of impropriety or the degradation of the Office, Democrats have a Constitutional duty to impeach.

 

[Crepitus]

Someone is going to be fired at CNN for letting the cat out of the bag!

A new CNN poll shows a majority of Americans are opposed to impeaching Donald Trump. In September, a plurality of 47 percent supported impeaching the president. Today, 50 percent say Trump shouldn't be removed from office.



Americans break against that idea, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. Half, 50%, say they don't feel that Trump ought to be impeached and removed from office, while 43% say he should be. Support for impeachment has dipped some since September, when 47% favored it, and is about the same as in a June poll (42% favored it then). Support for impeachment of Trump remains higher than it was for each of the last three presidents at any time it was asked. It's on par with President Richard Nixon, who 43% of Americans said should be impeached and removed from office in a March 1974 Harris poll.



The shift on impeachment comes mostly from political independents. In September, they were evenly split on the question, with 48% behind impeachment and 47% opposed. Now, 36% favor impeachment and 55% are opposed.


There's also been a meaningful shift on the question among younger adults (53% of those under age 45 backed impeachment in September, now that's down to 45%) and racial and ethnic minorities (66% favored it in September, 50% do now).



Is it just a coincidence that as the Russian collusion hysteria has disappeared down the rabbit hole — to be replaced by Michael Cohen hysteria — support for impeaching Trump has faded?

Just 12 percent of Democrats do not support impeaching the president. This doesn't prove polarization as much as it shows how deluded Democrats are as a party and why they are going to lose the presidency again in 2020.

This tweet is instructive:



I made this point on-air and was mocked by @JeffreyToobin. The whole animating ethos of the Dems is “resistance.” They have no agenda outside of Trump opposition, so they will absolutely impeach. Awful for our country, but inevitable. Buck Sexton on Twitter— Steve Cortes (@CortesSteve) December 12, 2018



The Democrats haven't had a serious agenda since 2008. In 2012, it was "re-elect the first black president." In 2016, it was "elect the first female president." What can they possibly offer the voters in 2020? "Medicare for all"? Faster, please. Free college tuition? Oh, yeah.
And who will be their candidate? One of the septuagenarians? Or one of the empty-headed radicals like Ocasio-Cortez or Beto?

Trying to impeach Trump will seal their fate -- much like it hurt Republicans in 1998. Ordinary Americans, unlike partisans, are very uneasy about overturning the results of an election without a slam-dunk case against the president.

Voters just aren't as stupid as Democrats think they are.

It's only because we know the real republicans on the Senate resigned and tRumpkins took over.

 

[mudwhistle]

when and if, the rubber hits the road, President Trump better RESIGN and not go through impeachment...

IF he goes through impeachment, it is unconstitutional to PARDON any person impeached and removed... so a pres pence COULD NOT pardon him....

this is why Nixon resigned at the 11th hour... right before being impeached

Link

The president can pardon just about anyone.....

And Trump will never resign.

I think you need to start worrying about Robert Mueller going to jail for destruction of evidence.
Hillary's going to jail for criminal conspiracy and for corruption.

Why is it that none of you remember that the Senate actually exists?

Nixon resigned because the Senate was not behind him.

Someone notify the blood bank near CNN headquarters....slashing wrists will soon be commonplace at the once leading news network....

Someone take pictures...

 

[rightwinger]

What will matter are what the charges are

If they are petty charges like a blow job, the public will consider the charges to be partisan

If they are serious charges like fraud or Treason, the public will demand action

Basically that's CNN smelling the fear within their own global socialists. Trump will start leaking and openly exposing so much dirt on a variety of politicians, that so many who were bought and sold will be of little to no value.

Trump and his voting base won't go down without a fight and he has he keys to the Kingdom right now.

Start with an easy one, leak names and details of politicians who used taxpayer money to settle sexual allegation suits. The publicly already want to know this anyways and really they deserve to know. I saw on twitter, a particular politician on the Democrat side apparently paid of a male Intern in 2013, if the information this guy as posting is correct. I imagine that's just a start and even possibly a warning shot, it was a recent relevation.

These are high stakes, not just now but in the future, Trump knows all he needs to know. From Obama on out, he has to know details and even whispers within the WH that point to some issues. He already rid of the WH many of the leakers who were harming him for instance.

Trump would be a criminal for not releasing anything he has that is criminal on any of these politicians and holding it back to use as blackmail, as you are implying... saving it for a rainy day is an abuse of power as well.

The reason for this result is because the vast majority of Americans know the House by it's self can not remove a President from office so even if the Democrats in the House are dumb enough to try this it dies in the Senate just like it did with Bill Clinton in the 90s. I remind people in both parties to think long and hard about the precedents they set because sooner or later they will be used against you. Harry Reid and the Democrats set the precedent of changing the Senate rules to get cabinet nominees and lower court judges confirmed with just a simple majority vote instead of the 60 it had been that came back to bite them Mitch McConnell and the Republicans did the same thing with Supreme Court nominees that will bite them as well.
