70% of Americans say Trump’s actions tied to Ukraine were wrong: POLL
ABC ^ | November 18th, 2019 | By kendall karson

Posted on 11/18/2019 7:49:45 AM PST by Mariner

An overwhelming 70% of Americans think President Donald Trump’s request to a foreign leader to investigate his political rival, which sits at the heart of the House of Representatives' impeachment inquiry, was wrong, a new ABC News/Ipsos poll finds.

A slim majority of Americans, 51%, believe Trump’s actions were both wrong and he should be impeached and removed from office. But only 21% of Americans say they are following the hearings very closely.

In addition to the 51%, another 19% think that Trump's actions were wrong, but that he should either be impeached by the House but not removed from office, or be neither impeached by the House nor convicted by the Senate. The survey also finds that 1 in 4 Americans, 25%, think that Trump did nothing wrong.

Still, nearly 1 in 3, 32%, say they made up their minds about impeaching the president before the news broke about Trump’s July phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, in which Trump urged his Ukrainian counterpart to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.

That’s around 14% of the population. About 6-7% want Trump impeached!

This is who the Democrats are targeting their hearings to - a small minority of Americans who actually follow the story.

80-85% of the American people don’t have an opinion or don’t care.

Not that ABC will tell you about it.

This is why I feel the RNC asses along with McDaniels has let us down!! Instead of hitting the airwaves with rapid fire with campaign ads demolishing the evil rats and their little hoax they are somewhere in a corner twiddling their thumbs counting the money and letting trump hang! Not only that people ARE being affected by what the media is spewing on a constant daily basis on there outlets! I’ve talk to enough people and they tell me that they are demoralized that the RNC isn’t doing enough to help with special elections and Trump! So don’t flame me if am sounding the alarm... the dirty rats and their socialist voting block are fired up like never before! Also, Don’t be surprised if the universities will be pushing their snowflakes to vote for a grade!! I’m already starting to hear rumbles that the professors will be engaged in 2020 like never before to help the DemoKKKrats turnout the student body to vote!! I hope the RNC already has a plan in place cause it’s starting to look like McDaniels don’t know squat!!! SHE NEEDS TO BE FIRED!!! My two cents worth!

“Wrong”?!?!?!?

Wrong is a moral judgment. How many say that the President's actions were illegal? Especially after being educated that the US and Ukraine have a Bill Clinton signed treaty (law of the land) that SPECIFCLY PERMITS INVESTIGATIONS?

Maybe the question should should be worded batter — “do you wish to know about potentially illegal activities which involves your government?”

“What a joke. How does this stuff get published, even by ABC?”

Especially by ABC. Because they have to sell this to the sheep out there as there is no evidence to indicate Trump had a political rival investigated. He honored a treaty and followed the trail. That’s his job we elect and pay him to do.

They could have just published the headline and saved the cost of doing the poll.

Why not 80%? Come on ABC, your losing your touch.

But putting aside the laughable, how do you get 70% when 95% of Republicans support the President?

If tomorrow, Pelosi pivoted away from impeachment and announce that the new policy initiative of the democrats was pitching kittens and puppies into wood chippers, ABC et. al. would come up with a poll showing “widespread support.”

Laughable.

An overwhelming 70% of Americans think President Donald Trump’s request to a foreign leader to investigate his political rival, which sits at the heart of the House of Representatives’ impeachment inquiry, was wrong, a new ABC News/Ipsos poll finds.

Unfortunately Trump could not ask for any help from his own government, as any agency or entity who could have brought these crooked dealing to light, sad to say are just as crooked and corrupt. And a good portion of the public is either too ignorant or dumb to realize what is going on. It makes a person wonder if the US ever will get back on the right track, or if it is a lost cause? Justice and common sense have taken a leave of absence, what will it take to bring it back ? The last time it took a revolution and a civil war, what will it be this time? Perhaps a disaster of biblical proportions or a war. Your guess maybe just about as good as mine and time will tell. For some reason humans just wont learn the easy way.

abc poll, nuff said.

Nevertheless, the President needs to get the facts out to the people because the msm never will. Nor is a talker like Hannity (for just one example). Even I can’t stand the sound of his voice anymore. Droning on and on, punctuations of “oh!” and “guess what!” Horrible delivery. He should simply give the hour to the President entirely, at least once a week. If I’m going to be shouted at I want PDJT to be the shouter.

Rush is still doing an excellent job. He has the largest audience.

He’s the bedrock of conservative media.

I archived it using an online, uh, archiving site, so I have a local copy. You know how Google scrubs stuff. I suggest everyone who sees the video saves a copy, and where possible, do it in groups (one sets up the save, then shares the link which is good for an hour or so).

In another poll, "70% of Americans have no idea what were Trump’s actions tied to Ukraine."

The Poll was made up of people who don’t have enough sense to get out of the rain.

506, online, no breakdown and nowhere to get anything but the topline.

This is a joke.

That’s for the 8% in a poll yesterday that said they believe the media is trying to prevent Trump’s impeachment.
