Impeachment Support Up Slightly

A new Monmouth poll finds President Trump’s approval rating has remained steady in the wake of an official impeachment inquiry launched last week, 41% to 53%.

Support for impeachment has ticked up slightly, with 44% who want to see Trump impeached and 52% who do not.

Said pollster Patrick Murray: “I’ve been saying this for a long time. Fundamental opinion about Donald Trump has been baked in from the very start of his presidency. Almost nothing he’s done has come as a surprise to the American public, which is why we see such little change in his job rating. The question is whether those who want Trump out of office are willing to wait until 2020 and that’s where we see a small shift.”
