Poll: 47 percent back impeachment for Trump
Source: The Hill
Nearly half of registered voters support President Trump being impeached, a new poll finds.
Democratic polling firm Public Policy Polling's new poll released Monday shows that 47 percent of voters support Trump being impeached, while 43 percent oppose it.
Trumps approval rating sits at 41 percent in the new poll, with 52 percent of voters disapproving of job performance. Thirty-six percent of voters think that Trump has delivered on his promises while 56 percent say he has not.
Trump also scored low marks in the poll for his ongoing feud with fired FBI Director James Comey. Fifty-one percent said Comey was the more trustworthy of the two men, while just 39 percent said Trump was. And just 13 percent said the FBI's chief should do whatever Trump tells them to do, while 77 percent disagreed.

It's a start but it's not enough by a long shot. Also, The Hill identifies the poll as from a smart people's polling organization (Democratic leaning ) so it may have some bias...toward the truth.

(24,339 posts)Impeachment is the investigation and then the vote for whether or not crimes have been committed
It's not a conviction
I'm disappointed at how many people thing that impeachment is kicking the prez from office
