New internal polling by the Trump campaign suggests Democrats in pro-Trump districts should avoid supporting impeachment or risk losing re-election.
The new poll, released Tuesday, surveyed 900 likely voters in the 30 congressional districts that President Donald Trump won in 2016 but are currently occupied by Democrats.
According to the survey, voters in those districts oppose impeachment by 10 percentage points, 53-43, and would support a new candidate over the Democratic incumbent by 11 points, 47-36.
A plurality of voters, 38%, said that if their congressperson supported impeachment, it would make them less likely to re-elect that individual. Just 29% said supporting impeachment would make them more likely to vote for the incumbent.

These Democrats already knew they were in trouble before the sham impeachment, but now they are in serious jeopardy, Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale said in a statement. By moving forward with her political theater of impeachment, Nancy Pelosi has accomplished two things: she has energized the Presidents supporters and walked her entire majority caucus off the plank.
Conservative groups have recently targeted these Democratic congresspersons as the Dirty 30 and have warned them that voting for impeachment could cost them their seats. New Jersey Rep. Jeff Van Drew was reportedly considering switching his party affiliation to Republican earlier this week because of the tricky politics in his district, causing his staffers to resign en masse.
Impeachment is the campaign.
And Trump will make it work to his advantage.

True, but though Trump is doing a good job on defense so far, he hasn’t launched is offence yet.
It’s going to be like the 3-day war.
He’s giving them enough rope.
Hes giving them enough rope.

Abso-f*ing-lutely.
“Dont worry, most of these voters will have forgotten about the impeachment”
?? With media bellowing out “Impeached President Trump” every 10 seconds 24/7? Who will be able to forget? I think the Dims/media will do nothing but remind America. There will be no way to forget.
Nancy is wearing black today to Mourn the end of her Political Career
If there's any honest people left in the FBI they need to seed voter rolls with fake names to see if those 'fake' names are 'voted' - and if they are - to arrest the democrats who voting them...
Our people should walk out of the "House" and STOP giving this kangaroo Court legitimacy... might be the best way to defend our President.
The GOP MUST ensure they have formidable quality conservative well funded candidates in each of these districts.
Issa was one Varney this AM and he was very bullish about all seven. We will see what happens.
To borrow a quote from a great American president, “We’ll wait and see what happens”.
Nope.
I hope it’s true but the sample size on this poll is pretty small 900 in 30 districts=30 people per district
I'd say Shitt.....with his parody explanation.
Congressman, the grenade blast only hurts for a fraction of a second. Then you are complete peace. So take one for the team and Leader Pelosi!
Sam, Trump is being impeached and tonight at 7:00 PM he is having an impeachment party "Trump Rally" in Battle Creek, MI.
USMCA, china trade deal, money for the border wall...WOW.
He has been to FL, NC, PA, MS, MI and AFGAHNISTAN in the past 6 weeks, what does he need to do for you to call it offense?
Joke of the day:
Guy walks into a bar, scratch that, LGBQT person of non-personal pronoun origin walks into a bar and says, where can a moderate Democrat buy a beer around here?
I will be donating to their Republican challengers and hope all Freepers do likewise.
I’m talking about the launching of this official presidential campaign with TV ads and all that.
That hasn’t even begun.
I am wrong to call what he is doing now “defense”... sorry about that.
But my point is that all that he is doing right now (and I agree with you, all great stuff) it’s all outside the scope of an actual Presidential Campaign.
When he actually starts his presidential campaign, he will wipe up the floor with whichever clown from the clowncar the clown bosses pick.
along with Biden, Pelosi and Kerry’s son/step son, add in Romney’s son. I heard that too!
Rudy..... come on down with those details. Got yourself some good body guards?
Call your Dem Reps offices, be polite but firm - tell them they do NOT want to be part of the biggest impeachment scam in the history of the USA.
I have called the reps here in Wisconsin except for Gwen Moore. She doesn’t understand anything anyway. Not worth my effort that one, for sure.
Please everyone, call the reps, burn up the phones. Marc Pocan’s gal in DC said the phones ringing off the wall. She wouldn’t tell me which way the calls lean. Bet AGAINST.
grrrrrrrrrrr.
PS: Please donate even a little to JIM ROB... no pop up ads are terrific. Just do it. :)
Exactly. The rat press has another year to drum up fresh outrages. Endless outrage.
The only reason why these fraudulent dams even wind in 18 was because the Mueller investigation was wrapping up big-time they said Trump was just about to be indicted theyve been saying hes been cheating with Russia for two straight years and it was all coming to a crescendo
That cannot be forgotten it is the only reason why the Democrats won the house in 2018
I would expect not only every single one of these Democrats to lose but an additional 15 to 20 and districts that are run by brain dead morons like shiff or mad max
