Donald Trump's approval rating is essentially unchanged at a historically weak 39 percent after the release of the Mueller report, just three in 10 Americans accept the presidents claim to have been exonerated and 58 percent in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll say the president lied to the public about the matters the special counsel investigated.
Nonetheless, support for impeachment is at a new low, 37 percent, in the national survey, albeit not significantly different from earlier this year. It rises to 62 percent among Democrats but falls sharply to 36 percent among independents and just 10 percent among Republicans. And while nearly six in 10 overall say Trump lied, theres a closer division 47-41 percent on whether or not he obstructed justice.

“How many support executions for coup treason attempt?”
That’s an opinion poll that is begging to be answered.
It ought include questions about whether lying journalists should be included.
not surprising that 60% think Trump lied, because that is all NBC/CNN spouts all day all night. If they ever told the truth, that % would be about 30-the nevertrumpers.
President Trump mis-spells a word in a tweet and FakeNewsMSM worlwide reports it.
President Trump says on Hannity everything will be declassified, and FakeNewsMSM is almost silent.
all that shows up from FakeNewsMSM in my searches - they can’t even carry the President’s few sentences!
25 Apr: CBS: Trump calls Mueller investigation “attempted overthrow” of the government
Robert Legare contributed to this report
The president also reiterated to Hannity that FISA court applications related to the investigation of Russia’s meddling would be “declassified.” Mr. Trump has said before that he wanted to release an unredacted version of documents related the FISA application to surveil former campaign aide Carter Page, although he later seemed to change his mind, saying that it could be perceived to negatively affect the Mueller investigation...

26 Apr: CNN: The 45 most outrageous lines from Donald Trump’s rambling interview with Sean Hannity
Analysis by Chris Cillizza
5. “I don’t know if you remember a long time ago, very early on, I used the word ‘wiretap’ and I put it in quotes, meaning surveillance, spying, you can sort of say whatever if you want.”
(Cillizza) Trump is referring to tweets he sent in the spring of 2017 in which he accused then-President Barack Obama of ordering a wire-tap on his phone at Trump Tower. Which never happened...
29. “Everything is going to be declassified and more, much more than what you just mentioned. It will all be declassified.”
(Cillizza)We are going to declassify the hell out of this place!...

25 Apr: Real Clear Politics: Trump: “Sleepy Joe” Biden Is “Not Going To Be Able To Do The Job”
By Ian Schwartz
PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP: Yes. Everything is going to be declassified and more, much more than what you just mentioned. It will all be declassified. Im glad I waited because I thought that maybe they would object struck if I did it early and I think I was right.
So Im glad I waited. And now, the attorney general can take a look, a very strong look at whatever it is. But it will be declassified and more than what you just mentioned.

Take a good look at the numbers that watch NBC/CNN and add NYT. Break it out as a percentage of the pop. It’s laughably small. Heck, add all the cable news and leftist news papers together for their coverage and it’s still an extreme minority of the population.
Quite possibly, the poll was taken on a college campus. Or, it was made up.
Best bet is on the made up.
“Maybe they should have polled some people who dont live in San Francisco and Boston”.
True enough but there are ignorant and stupid people from coast to coast. It’s unbelievable that so many are brain dead.
Bogus poll. Let’s take a poll to see how many people believe anything ABC says.
From that point on, you know it will be mostly lies with a few references to fact to make it appear more like reality.
===================
Those folks did so well with their predictions in 2016 that only the intellectually challenged would continue to put any faith in them.
No one with half a functioning brain believes or heeds any of these polls. This game is over....Trump will win in an election landslide victory. Case closed!!!
Always have to look to the end of the poll to see how accurate or meaningful it is.
Here - skewed heavier Democrat and Independent (65%!) and only 26% Republican. (Don’t say who the other 9% are!). Further, polled “adults”. Not registered voters or likely voters; just adults. Junk poll. Even heading on poll shows the slant “Only 3 in 10 see Trump as exonerated”. Further, it was done in English or Spanish. How thoughtful.
If 2016 taught us anything, Pools are both inaccurate and ALWAYS skewed left.
METHODOLOGY This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by landline and
cellular telephone April 22-25, 2019, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample
of 1,001 adults. Results have a margin of sampling error of 3.5 points, including the design
effect. Partisan divisions are 29-26-36 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents.
Garbage in, garbage out!
Ask how many polled read the report themselves
Many people hate polls and have for decades so they dont answer honestly. I hope the Democrats continue to believe and waste their money.
That is good news. I think Rasmussen is a little optimistic because it calls only land lines. Of course other polls also have problems. But there is an uptrend for Trump, and for good reasons.
Thanks for the utterly meaningless poll, ABC.
Try, try again.
