Pelosi on impeachment: if the Senate exonerates Trump

[ancianita]

253. I don't have to presume. Americans voted forty new Democratic House seats last year.

Ten months before that, an NBC/WSJ Poll claimed that "41 percent of Americans believe there is enough reason for Congress to hold impeachment hearings, even before the conclusion of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. The poll found that 70 percent of Democrats, 40 percent of independents and even 7 percent of Republicans are in favor of the hearings.

... 73 percent saying they would "definitely" vote for the Democratic candidate. Additionally, just 47 percent of white voters without a college degree said they would support Trump in 2020, down 19 points from the support he received in 2016's election..."

May 9, Reuters reports "The number of Americans who said President Donald Trump should be impeached rose 5 percentage points to 45 percent since mid-April...

The poll also found that 32 percent agreed that Congress treated the Mueller report fairly, while 47 percent disagreed.

Trump’s popularity was unchanged from a similar poll that ran last week - 39 percent of adults said they approved of Trump, while 55 percent said they disapproved."

Somewhere in there is what Americans think over the last year; somewhere there is a majority, and votes.

You might have asked how I can speak about "most" Americans' thinking (which could change in the next eighteen months). You don't agree, prove me mistaken. You don't like my opinion, use the Ignore button.

Don't presume to tell me I'm in a bubble.
