The math doesn't add up. Polls claim that 38% - 45% support Trump, yet

70% of those polled say that they are not ready to accept President Trump's claim of exoneration. They prefer to wait for the report. That means that there's 8 to 15% of the people who are not really diehard Trump supporters.

The 70% was per a guest on MSNBC.
