A majority of Americans say they wouldn't support former President Trump, new polling shows, even as he remains the overwhelming favorite among Republicans.
When the House of Representatives voted in February 1974to give the House Judiciary Committee subpoena power to investigate Nixon, it did not have the weight ofpublic opinion behind it. According to a poll conducted by Gallup just days before the vote, only 38 percent of Americans were in favor of impeachment. And although a solid majority of Americans did eventually come to support impeachment, that moment didn’t arrive until quite late in the game.
They guy attempted a coup. He should be on trial for his life right now… and still 30+% of Americans might support him.
