How Trump’s Trial Is Playing Politically

A new CNN poll finds just 28% of American say a conviction in the hush money case would disqualify Donald Trump from the presidency — double-digits less than those who say that of Trump’s three other indictments.

And just 33% say he did something illegal. (Another 33% say his conduct was unethical but not illegal.)

But just 34% buy into Trump’s claims that he’s being treated more harshly than most other criminal defendants. Nearly half say he’s either being treated about the same (13%) or more leniently (34%).
