Fewer Voters Think Trump Committed Crimes

A new New York Times/Siena College poll finds the share of Americans who say that Donald Trump committed serious federal crimes, steadily on the rise since the fall of 2022, has declined since December.

“Voters across the political spectrum are now less likely to say that Mr. Trump acted criminally. Democrats are 7 percentage points less likely to say that they think Mr. Trump committed crimes, while the share of political independents who said the same is down 9 percentage points. Republicans have remained relatively stable, only ticking down one point since the end of last year.”
