Public Remains Split on Impeachment

A new Monmouth poll finds that 49% of the public approves and 47% disapproves of the Senate’s decision to acquit Trump and not remove him from office.

“The impeachment trial – like pretty much every other event or incident during the Trump presidency – has had little impact on public opinion of the incumbent. Trump’s job rating stands at 44% approve and 50% disapprove, which is statistically indistinguishable from his 43%-52% rating last month. Over the past 12 months, Trump’s approval has ranged from 40% to 44% in Monmouth’s polling, while disapproval has ranged from 50% to 54%.”
