Former Obama chief strategist David Axelrod said he attended a focus group with Democratic voters in Chicago on Friday, describing the gathering as "chilling" because impeachment "didn't come up" until more than an hour into the session despite it taking place amid the Senate trial of President Trump.
Axelrod, who serves as a political analyst on CNN, shared about his experience during an interview with network anchor Erin Burnett on "OutFront" on Friday night, as Democratic House impeachment managers made their final arguments in the trial before White House lawyers begin their defense of the president on Saturday.
"I was in a focus group this morning for the Institute for Politics here at the University of Chicago with some Chicago Democratic voters, and it was chilling to hear them talk about this," Axelrod said. "Because impeachment didn’t come up, no one volunteered it, for 80 minutes into the focus group, and we’re right in the middle of the trial."
"When it came up, they said, you know, it's terrible what he did, the case has been proven, but we know how it's going to turn out," Axelrod continued. "So we're not really that interested, we're ready to move on."

I will be delighted to be “dead wrong on this one.”
It will be so pleasing to see the Dems shrivel up when they see their poll numbers in free fall.
Nah, they are going to launch a new impeachment. Surely the next one will have the voters eating out of Democrat hands.
The results of Hollywood surprises me?
No. Pay attention. Hollywood and the democrat party are the same entity.
Jeb Bush’s butt buddy - bump for later...
That’s why I tend to like KDramas, they tend to be all about families. And South Korea is a relatively conservative society compared to most of the rest of the world.
“When it came up, they said, you know, it’s terrible what he did, the case has been proven, but we know how it’s going to turn out,” Axelrod continued. “So we’re not really that interested, we’re ready to move on.”
In other words they have completely drank the Kool-Aid of lies and they still don’t care about it. LOL
Yeah, that teaser is what caught my attention to start watching the show. 8>)
Or like watching 2016 election night coverage over and over again.
Now WHY did you have to go and bring THAT up?
Chicago? They just wanted to talk about getting more govt handouts.
“Superbowl much less stressful. When your team is playing 4 all the marbles it’s agonizing to be a fan I’ve found.”
Lol ain’t that the truth! I turned BOTH games off at the half because they were losing and I was sure they could not come back against the Pats. You can imagine my stunned surprise when I woke up the following morning to find out they had won.
F these democRAT bastards. When the POTUS can not look into corruption, especially when we are feeding a country money, something is wrong. The swamp is much deeper and more widespread than previously imagined. A civil war is on the horizon.
It has been clearly proven in my mind and the minds of a lot of conservatives that the Democrat politicians and their Democrat mass Media cover are pedophiles and child sex traffickers.
I think he sold most of the stock in his secret basement dungeon to Ed Buck, to entertain Adumb Schitt and Ted Lieu at the next meth injection party.
BTTT!!!
Terrible what he did... What did President Trump do?
the case has been proven. I bet none of these people have read the transcript of the call, and none of them have seen today's presentation of the facts the Democraps don't want people to hear. Hell, I bet none of these people can tell you what the impeachment charges are.
The history books are not going to be kind.
