Poll: Support for Trump’s removal remains steady

Stabilized public opinion about voters’ preferred outcome for the trial comes despite what could have been a bombshell of a revelation going into the second week of the trial.

The New York Times reported Sunday that in the manuscript for a forthcoming book, former White House national security adviser John Bolton writes that Trump directly tied the release of frozen military aid for Ukraine to Kyiv’s willingness to commit to investigations of Trump’s political rivals. Those allegations are at the heart of the charges against the president.

While at first it seemed the news could produce new support among Republicans for subpoenaing Bolton to testify, the motion was narrowly defeated Friday in a victory for the White House and GOP leaders.

The POLITICO/Morning Consult poll was conducted online between Jan. 29-30 among a national sample of 1,992 registered voters. Results from the full survey have a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.

Morning Consult is a nonpartisan media and technology company that provides data-driven research and insights on politics, policy and business strategy.
