Half of voters say sexual misconduct accusations against Trump are credible

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Half of voters find sexual misconduct accusations against President Donald Trump to be credible, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll conducted against the backdrop of a national discussion on sexual harassment.

Fifty percent of registered voters think the allegations against Trump are credible, more than the 29 percent who think they are not credible. The remaining 21 percent of voters don’t know if the allegations are credible.

Trump, during last year’s presidential campaign, was accused of sexual abuse or harassment by more than a dozen women — some of whom have resurfaced in recent days in hopes that a renewed focus on sexual harassment would lead their claims to gain more traction. Six Democratic senators have seized on those allegations this week, calling on Trump to resign.

The new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll surveyed 1,955 registered voters from December 8-11, with most of the interviews completed before three of those women held a press conference on Monday to tell their stories.

Trump has denied their claims, both through the White House press office and on his widely read Twitter account, tweeting that they are “false accusations and fabricated stories of women who I don’t know and/or have never met. FAKE NEWS!”

When Obama was in office the DNC/MSM convinced too may weak Americans that they subconsciously or conscientiously were guilty of racism. If Hillary had won we would all be latent sexists... oh wait never mind.

DJT was admittedly a NY cad and playboy....(probably prone to some hyperbole and locker room braggadoccio), but even if its all true...

WE DON'T CARE !

He's saving the country from socialist slimes who want us to be as bad as all the other freedomless countries on the planet.

I believe in Global Warming the way a starving man believes in food.

I don’t know anyone who answers calls from people they don’t know. We have a land line and I absolutely will not answer calls with 800’s, out of state calls, and calls from “Unknown Caller’s”, or calls that do not identify the caller. Who are these people that randomly pick up their phones to talk to strangers?

[Paladin2]

"Where are Trump’s friends who should have his back? "

That would be most of the Deplorables...

[kaehurowing]

Let me guess, they also voted for Hillary.

I just took a poll and I found that 90% of democrats are suffering from Trump dementia. It can only be cured by going to North Korea and participating in their diet program.

Yea, and half the voters believe in bigfoot too...With that being said, heard rumor that bigfoot was seen at the White House until about a year ago :-)

OK, as prognosticated, here we go!

Here is the real misconduct.

Curiously, it goes on, unnoticed, as a schizophrenic footnote to the career of a pathological war lord.

Polluticult is really reaching these days.

It seems to me if the MSM news media can’t be honest; they should not be allowed to publish or broadcast their smut even with the first amendment.

[huckleberry55]

yeah , and the other half do not ................

There is NO way to confirm independently any of the accusations these women have made. Secondly, I guarantee that whatever sexual contact there was, was invited by the women because Trump back then was a single, good looking, WEALTHY playboy who had women throwing themselves at him wherever he went. That can't be denied - it's why nobody ever heard any complaints until the election. He never "admitted" he grabbed women by the "p", but I don't doubt that he was stating something factual and that he could attest really happens. Some women DO invite it. It's like the college coeds complaining that the old fogey professor ogled them at the pool when they were there in their bikinis. His defense was they'd have no problem being ogled if he was a handsome celebrity! He was right.

Finally, Trump cannot be impeached for things he did while an ordinary citizen. High crimes and misdemeanors applies to acts done while in office. The American public has already judged the supposed “sexual harassment” claims and elected him anyway. The "Russia" scandal is going nowhere so we're back to this again. How about we grow up, accept the "consequences" of the election and let the man do what he was elected to do? I had to hold my nose for eight years of Oblamma, they can get used to it now.

Agree with everything you wrote here. Damn we have some incredibly stupid voters!

I came across an article somewhere today, can’t recall where, that pinpointed how this flood of crap begin and their belief is that it started when the witch lost and all the pussy hat protesters decided men would have to pay...I might have it a bit wrong but that was the jist of it.

[vpintheak]

What a crock-o-poo!

[Pollster1]

The hateful left believes everything negative they hear about the republican President of the United States. This is not breaking news.

[NorthMountain]

in the right culture.

The left's deliberate stupefaction of the people is as far from the right culture as can be imagined.

[Maverick68]

When the Left clear up their own house, I will give a damn.
When the Left insist that every building, street or monument named after Bill Clinton be torn to the ground, I will give a damn.
When every single penny the Left have gleaned from the Clinton Foundation are returned, I will give a damn.
When the Media APOLOGIZE for supporting the wife of a sexual predator who covered for him, I will give a damn.
When the Left end their protection of islam whose prophet is a pedophile, I will give a damn.
Until that time, I WILL SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMP no matter what evidence, real or imagined comes forth.

[merkava]

the democrat halve that voted against him.
