Trump’s approval rating drops to low, but Americans still oppose impeachment, survey finds.
But the CNBC poll of 800 Americans nationwide conducted last week found a significant shift where fewer Americans are opposed to impeachment. It also found a large decline in the president's overall and economic approval ratings.
"The American people are not jumping towards impeachment," said Micah Roberts, a partner in Public Opinion Strategies who serves as the Republican pollster for the CNBC survey. "They are cautiously moving away from opposing impeachment." The poll shows that 88% of Republicans oppose impeachment, compared with 76% of Democrats who favor it. Independents are split about evenly, with 42% favoring impeachment and 43% opposing.
