Who knew that when it came to impeachment, its biggest benefactor would be President Donald Trump?
Everyone. Everyone knew that…except the Democrats apparently.
According to Firehouse Strategies, the battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin all consistently showed that Trump was losing to Joe Biden in a match-up, but recently, polling from Firehouse shows that he’s now falling short of beating Trump by six points, and it’s all thanks to impeachment:
As the race currently stands, President Trump is in the lead in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin in hypothetical match-ups against former Vice President Joe Biden, Senator Elizabeth Warren, Senator Bernie Sanders, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and former Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Across the three states, Trump’s closest contest is against Joe Biden, although the president leads by an average of 6 percentage points against each Democrat.
As you can see from the graph below, what began as a promising start for Biden has now sunk to below the waterline in all three swing states.
o what can we take away from this poll? Firehouse partner Alex Conant made a very interesting remark to that point.
“Democrats racing towards impeachment are at serious risk of leaving behind the voters they need to retake the White House next year,” said Conant.
Voters neither wish him impeached or forced out of office. They like Trump right where he is. In the White House, making decisions, but that’s an obvious conclusion. More interesting is another fact that may go flying under the radar, but I think it’s far more poignant.
Voters don’t believe Democrats anymore. After years of hearing about Russia and now months of hearing about Ukraine, and with absolutely nothing to show for it, the people are looking at the Democrats as the boy who cried “wolf.” They’ve tuned out.
Both figuratively, and very literally.
Every day brings some fresh hell for Democrats, who have so let their hatred for Trump cloud their judgment that they continue to act like angry children. The witnesses they bring forth have nothing of substance to add to the hearings, and only serve to reinforce the notion that they’ve become far more obsessed with how they feel than what they can prove.
This makes the Democrat party look childish and inept, and while Trump’s economy is roaring along like a well-oiled machine, the left looks useless by comparison.
In the end, the left can thank themselves for the loss of those battleground states.
They only poll in states like CA, NY, MA and MD.
Considering that Trump support is always under-reported, this is Hugh and Series!
Just talked to a friend and Democrat in Michigan. Real estate is up. Jobs are up. Pay is up. Detroit is being cleaned up by GOP mayor. She will vote GOP now.
let’s suppose for a minute that biden was president, and trump was going to run in 2020, and trump’;s son was o n the board of burisma- and biden ordered- actually ordered the ukraine to investigate him OR lose their money- The left would be justifying their actions by claiming that trump’s son was a threat to national security, and so corrupt that they were ‘forced to investigate on behalf of he nation’, and there would be no phony impeachment hearings- because the left would be going mental- or more mental that is, the msm would be screaming bloody murder- and congress would be going ballistic-
.
This whole idiotic impeachment crap is nothing but retribution for clinton- both clintons- and is a vicious malicious attack on a duly elected sitting president!

Correction: and is a vicious malicious attack on an INNOCENT duly elected sitting president!
The people know when someone’s being railroaded.
We’ve experienced law that’s ‘different for the powerless’ than for corrupt liberal ‘elites’...
Millions of us can see the Kangaroo Court for what it is... millions and millions and millions. Unless they can cheat on a grander scale than they’ve ever cheated, they’ll lose.
I guess the American people will need to slap the democrats in the face on election day to get them to understand just how freakish they are behaving.
Just donated to 2020 again.
That’s 3 times in the last two weeks.
Do not take this poll too seriously, unless it is confirmed by other polls.
It is a GOP poll conducted party by “PEER-TO-PEER TEXT MESSAGING”, which is highly unusual.
Yet we have so called conservative Ben Shapiro claiming Trump was behind in all the polls, just last week on his radio show.
Sorry - can’t see it:
