Trump Is Losing the Argument Over the Mueller Probe

August 14, 2018 · 11:12 am ET · Leave a Comment

A new CNN poll finds that just 34% of Americans approve of President Trump’s handling of the Russia investigation as compared to 55% who disapprove.

In addition, 56% believe Trump has interfered with the investigation while just 38% who say he has not. And 58% say this is a serious matter that should be investigated while only 37% who think it’s mainly an effort to discredit Trump.

Greg Sargent: “Trump is losing every single public argument about the Mueller probe.”
