In new Yahoo News/YouGov poll, most voters think Trump committed abuses — but are split on impeachment by AndrewRomano
As two weeks of televised impeachment hearings and wall-to-wall coverage came to a close, a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll showed that a majority of registered voters believe that Donald Trump abused his powers as president of the United States. But the country remained divided over the question of whether he should be impeached as a result.
When asked to say whether they believe Trump did or did not commit specific acts in connection with Ukraine — the subject of the House impeachment inquiry — 58 percent of registered voters said they believe the president “asked a foreign leader to investigate a political opponent”; 51 percent said they believe he “withheld military aid until Ukraine agreed to conduct the investigations he wanted”; and 51 percent said they believe he “abused his powers as president.
Yet only 48 percent of voters said they favor impeaching or removing Trump from office — slightly more than the 45 percent who opposed impeaching or removing the president, but less than a majority. Americans are even divided by party over what they believe the likely outcome of the impeachment inquiry will be. Overall, only 11 percent believed that Trump will be removed from office; a plurality expected impeachment in the House followed by acquittal in the GOP-controlled Senate. That’s a view shared by a majority of Democrats. Yet a majority of Republicans believe that Trump won’t be impeached at all.
