Epic fail: Most now oppose impeachment as Trump approval turns positive......
washingtonexaminer ^ | 11/21/2019 | Paull Bedard

House impeachment proceedings have helped — not hurt — President Trump’s approval in the eyes of voters, and in the latest survey, his rating has turned positive thanks to a massive revolt against impeachment by independents.... support for impeachment is now negative, a finding that backs up other recent polling.

Trump is also beating or tied with every Democratic presidential candidate except Sen. Bernie Sanders in the new poll. Against Sanders, Trump is losing 49% to 50%, well within the margin of error.

Well, gosh golly, who’d a thunk?

If Pelosi were smart she would find a way to end it before letting it come to a vote before the full House. In fact, the sooner she ends it, the less further damage she will do to her party.

Haven’t watched even a second of the charade-debacle. I’ll stick with Saturday morning cartoons which are intelligent by comparison and with far more appealing casts of characters.

I feel bad for President for having had to sit through the BS though. And I do hope his health isn’t affected.

When you paint your self into a corner you sit and wait or leave tracks in fresh paint. They have to impeach, I wonder if they have the votes? The only gun they have shoots backwards.

They say laughter is good for your health, so I’m betting he is more than OK.

Where are all the online polls? I would’ve thought there would be a number them asking who won the impeachment hearings.

Oh come on. Trump is a warrior. He relishes a showdown. Take a look at his rallies. He’s kicking ass and enjoying it!

Some saw it as a farce - others didn’t even bother watching the latest hysterics...

It’s ‘old news’ even as it’s happening.

Democrats are liars - there’s no there-there - and the press is compromised.

Trump will be cleared and then dems start the next freakout...

The money quote:

“The biggest swing is among independents, who oppose impeachment now 49% to 34%, which is a reversal from October where they supported impeachment 48% to 39%.”

This means everything to Democrats seeking reelection in red and purple districts. Expect to see them start breaking ranks IF articles are drafted.

They don’t have 218 votes.

Do you remember how during the Clinton administration he was seen commenting on every bit of news and every event across the globe? When it seemed as if he was everywhere, all the time. People started saying they were all Bubba’d out.

Well, after three years of Russia, Stormy, Comey, etc., people are all crazied out.

EXACTLY SO.

Personally, I want an official investigation by a government IG’s office to determine if the DIMocRATS in Congress’ “Impeachment Inquiries & unending investigations of the POTUS” can be PROSECUTED as criminal acts under the FRAUD, WASTE & ABUSE federal felony statutes.

The DIMs have spent over 50 MILLION DOLLARS of TAXPAYER’S FUND, for NO apparently legitimate reason.

Yours, TMN78247

A 25 point swing in swing voters is telling, especially in a consistent poll, using the same methodology and same questions.

And the only explanation is the hearings.

I am now predicting that the impeachment vote does not pass the in the House. The Democrats can't afford to have witnesses questioned under oath in a fair trial in the Senate.

The whistleblower will have to be named and testify. The roots to Soros could be explored. All the FISA abuses would be allowed as evidence. Former President Obama could be called as a witness.

Now some of this depends on whether the Chief Justice allows a far ranging defense. But phone records would be confiscated and Adam Schiff's staff can't afford to be seen coordinating the whistleblower.

Think about it. They thought it would all go their way when they were able to stack the deck in the House hearing. They figured with the lamestream media beating the drums day after day the American people would be clamoring for the President to step down. That didn't happen. Despite the stacked deck the witnesses they produced were feeble at best. Nobody believed the crap that the networks put out.

The democrats are going to let this whither on the vine and vote it down. Now they are stupid and believe that with the networks on their side, they can foist anything they want on the American people. So I give this prediction at 80% confidence of being voted down in the House and 20% they are silly enough to let it go to the Senate.

What makes you assume the trial will be fair in the Senate? The GOP Senate has not been supportive of President Trump in his battle against the coup for 3 years. In fact the GOP Senate blocked the outstanding Ratcliffe for DNI. Graham has already made rumblings about picking the witnesses for POTUS. I’m just not counting my chickens on a Senate trial. McConnell will find a way to do the absolute minimum in support of POTUS. Guaranteed.
