ABC News did a poll that showed 70% of Americans think Trump’s actions with a Ukraine leader were wrong. This was then translated to a poll showing 70% think he should be impeached. This is a poll of 500 respondents and has been widely used by other media outlets as accurate. Remember ABC News used firing from a gun range in Kentucky as Turks killing Kurd civilians in Syria.
Hopefully Democrats rely on ABC for decisions. Just as the did when they were sure Hillary would be President today. One poll was different. Rasmussen Reports told you all along that it was a much closer race than all other pollsters predicted.
Here’s Rasmussen on the impeachment.
Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Monday, November 18, 2019
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove.
The latest figures include 37% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 42% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -5. (see trends).
The president’s overall approval has been tracking up since last Wednesday, the first day of the House impeachment hearings. It was at 46% on Wednesday morning, then rose to 48% Thursday and to 50% by Friday. All three nights in today’s survey now follow the highly-publicized hearings.
Regular updates are posted Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily email update).
Now that Gallup has quit the field, Rasmussen Reports is the only nationally recognized public opinion firm that still tracks President Trump’s job approval ratings on a daily basis. If your organization is interested in a weekly or longer sponsorship of Rasmussen Reports’ Daily Presidential Tracking Poll, please send e-mail to beth@rasmussenreports.com.
This suggests the Democrats are doing serious damage with the televised impeachment hearings. The TV viewership is 13 million which also indicates problems. TV testimony of Comey in June 2017 received 19.6 million and Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony against Kavanaugh received 20 million.
The ringmaster Schiff and his circus might suggest the dwindling audience sees him as someone they would like to see eaten by the lions.
We shall see.
