61-35% it’s a necessary stand

41-55% it’s NOT overreacting


This makes no sense. If its a "necessary stand" then how can it be overreacting?

ie, the question is probably something like "Do you think impeachment is an overreaction to the Presidents activities"

But the reporter pulled out the takeaway as "not overreacting"

It's probably asking too much to get the raw numbers too.
Still, considering how much weight (albeit transitory) an individual poll carries, it's absurd that the public has no chance to review the underlying data. I'd be inclined to discount *all* responses from people who said both impeachment is a necessary stand and impeachment is overreacting. That is, "yes" to [impeachment is a necessary stand], and "no" to [it’s NOT overreacting], though I doubt the survey questions were actually constructed like that. If they were constructed like that, I'd discount the whole survey as bad science.

That's the question, so 55% say No and 41% say Yes. That's in line with the other responses.

The numbers are kind of baffling, even with that clarification. But I'm encouraged by b and c.

other things from happening. The House has passed over 200 bills. The only reason nothing is happening is because of Moscow Mitch and Republicans.

But most voters can't seem to figure that out.

Very unlikely, but better than the zero chance of progress without impeachment.

I remember civics classes in school...do they even teach that any more? How about Schoolhouse Rock? Anyone remember that? I used to love watching those "cartoons"...a fun and accessible way to learn about government, science, math, grammar, etc.

impeached, they turn around quickly - as in wanting him out of office.

a pretty good majority disapprove. The mafia-like demand from Ukraine was easy for everyone to understand. That got people to pay attention. Now the other stuff like Barr globe-trotting to "prove" Trump's conspiracy theory, the abandonment of the Kurds, the obstruction of everything, it's all building to a crescendo.

The sooner we can get into the White House with a fumigating service, the better.

One of the most important polls I've seen recently shows that republicans under the age of 35 are becoming increasingly open to the idea of impeaching and removing Trump.

The GOP isn't answerable to "Americans". They do not, have not, and will continue to not give a flying fuck in a force ten gale what "Americans" think about anything. They care about their base.

And what does their base think?

His corruption is in plain sight and his tough-guy schtick is getting old. Trumpers are only hanging on because he is racist, but as they lose their shirts and realize their country isn't being made great again they are losing their enthusiasm for him.
He still has Russia, though.
