Poll: 4 in 10 support impeaching Trump

Posted by | February 3, 2017 08:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics

Two weeks into his administration, Donald Trump faces a public that largely does not like his presidency – and a significant portion of those people want him removed:

Forty percent of registered voters support impeaching President Trump, according to a poll released Thursday from the left-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP).

Nearly half of voters, 48 percent, are opposed to impeaching Trump, and 12 percent remain unsure, according to the poll.

Pollsters also found that a majority of voters, 52 percent, would prefer former President Obama in his old role rather than Trump; 43 percent prefer Trump, and 5 percent are uncertain.

    Donnies belly flop admin is “unpresidented”. Good luck getting 67 Senators to convict. (D) 48 to (R) 52. In November 2018, Dems will definitely lose their red state senate seats. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/82bc68b998640d43e410127b567101955ef1ef9bd4612d7ae4f770d8a6ee918b.jpg

    4 in 10? What an effin joke!! This coupled with the fact that Congress is controlled by Repulsives means we are doomed to endure unknown horrors for years to come….

    Currently the shortest time in office record is held by William Henry Harrison. He caught pneumonia on inauguration day and died thirty one days later.

    There still is time for Trump to set a new world record…

    Not sure we have enough to actually justify impeachment. But… there WAS Bill Clinton.
