Whole Title: Trump slams 'fake' and 'lousy' polling that reveals nearly 50% of voters want him impeached and claims 'I have the real polls'
President Donald Trump claimed on Sunday that polls showing that 49 percent of voters want him impeached were 'fake' and 'lousy' and said he had 'the real polls.'
The polling from Fox News, MSN, and NBC/WSJ revealed that that almost half the country now supports Trump's removal, and were conducted amid an impeachment inquiry focusing on whether POTUS improperly encouraged Ukraine to carrying out investigations that would help his political goals.
When confronted by the numbers outside the White House Sunday, Trump shot back: 'You’re looking at the wrong polls. I have the real polls. The CNN polls are fake. The Fox polls have always been lousy. I tell them they ought to get themselves a new pollster.'
Compared to a Fox poll conducted in early October, results were down 2 to 49 percent, despite the military raid that killed ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Trump's decision to withdraw troops from Syria.
In the NBC/WSJ poll taken on the same three dates, 49 percent said they wanted Trump impeached and removed and 46 said he should stay.
It's compared to an equal percentage believing in a poll conducted October 4-6 that he shouldn't be impeached and should remain in office. Previously only 43 percent supported a removal and 8 percent admitted they were unsure but this time around there was more certainty among respondents.
In an MSN poll that is updated daily around noon, results on Sunday showed 52 percent supported the Senate voting to remove Trump from office if he was impeached. The percentage was down compared to results late September and early October.

bull
Almost half the country is Dems. So of course half want him impeached.
Polls are not tools to measure opinion.
Polls are tools to persuade people to adopt an opinion that has been chosen for them.
Totally agree. Has anyone seen the internals for this poll? Would be curios to see the percentage of Democrats polled.
Bingo!
They don’t shape my opinion.
Approximately half the people who could be bothered to get off their asses and vote in 2016, voted for Hildebeeste.
Barack the Usurper was elected. TWICE.
Why don’t 75% want him impeached, you may ask...
Big Media trying to intimidate the Senate for when the House returns its sham “vote”.
Even FOX is in on this con now. Man, the Deep State is really getting desperate.
Why would every Dem want president pence?
Saw 46.8% Dems on another thread.
Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!
Fox News hasn’t existed for many years. It is now Murdoch News, a slightly better version of CNN. Murdoch News’s polls should be relied on as much CNN polls.
Bothersome having all of them around. If only something in nature could thin or cull that herd.....Oops, getting too mean. I was only grimly joking. Encourage them to go sky diving, mountain climbing,deep sea diving, train large cougars and other cats, become test pilots, volunteer to test new plague drugs, drive race cars,drive dynamite trucks on mountain roads and face hostage situation standoffs as law enforcement officers.
By the way, after January, 2021 they will unhesitatingly cull our conservative population if the gulags get too crowded. Feeding us will cost too much to the bankrupt Communist system as it always does. “How many old people can our health system afford to keep alive? Is it cost effective for single payer?” They hate deplorables.
Sore losers
