    Default Long after trump is dead, voters will be punishing Republicans

    This is not a winner for Republicans.

    Americans under the age of 30 support removing Trump from office by a nearly 3-to-1 ratio

    Reuters

    New data from Insider SurveyMonkey Audience polling shows that Americans under 30 support Trump's removal from office by a larger margin than any other age group.

    Among Americans aged 18-29, 63% said Trump should be removed from office, compared to 24% who think he shouldn't be and 13% who didn't know.

    Trump is currently on trial for two articles of impeachment articles that the House approved in late December.

    The results largely align with other surveys showing especially high support for Trump's removal, and particularly low favorability and approval for the president among Americans under 30.

    As opening arguments continue in President Donald Trump's Senate impeachment trial, new data from Insider polling shows that Americans under 30 support his removal from office by a larger margin than any other age group.

    Trump is currently on trial for two impeachment articles -- one for abusing his office and one for obstructing Congress -- that the House approved in late December.

    Currently, seven House impeachment managers are presenting opening arguments that make the case for convicting Trump. On Saturday, White House counsel Pat Cipollone and attorney Jay Sekulow will argue Trump's defense.

    For the past several months, Insider has been conducting a series of SurveyMonkey Audience polls to gauge Americans' opinions on the ongoing impeachment proceedings. You can download every poll here, down to the individual respondent data. (Read more about how the Insider polling works here).

    On January 22, Insider surveyed 1,070 Americans to ask whether they thought Trump should be impeached and removed from office.

    Among Americans aged 18-29, 63% said Trump should be removed from office, compared to 24% who think he shouldn't be, and 13% who didn't know.

    For Americans aged 30-44, 56% said Trump should be removed from office in contrast with 28% who think he should not be removed, and 15.8% who don't know.

    Among those aged 45-60, 47.6% think that Trump should be removed from office compared to 42% who think he should not be removed, and 10% who don't know.

    For Americans aged 60 and older, a narrow majority of 51% believed Trump should be removed from office in contrast to 40% who think he should not be removed, and 8% who don't know.

    The results largely align with other surveys showing especially high support for Trump's removal, along with particularly low favorability and approval for the president, among Americans under 30, who tend to lean more liberal than older generations.

    A Pew Research Center survey released on January 22 similarly found that a slim majority of 51% of Americans support Trump's removal from office. Like Insider's poll, Pew's survey revealed that 63% of Americans aged 18-29 and 55% of those aged 30-49 support the Senate convicting Trump.

    Trump is accused of abusing his office by dispatching his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and other administration officials to withhold a congressionally-appropriated $391 million military aid package from Ukraine for his own personal gain.

    For Trump to be removed from office, two-thirds of the US Senate — 67 members — must vote to convict him of articles of impeachment.

    Currently, the Senate consists of 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents who caucus with Democrats, meaning he is highly unlikely to be removed from office.

    If Trump is not convicted in the Senate, he stays in office, and it'll be left up to the American people to reelect him or vote him out of office in 2020.

    no they wont. Very few people will tell you this but Democrats have already failed the first test of this impeachment.

    11 million people viewed day 1 (thats throughout the entire time it was on) 8.5 million on day 2. In contrast the Clinton impeachment was the highest rated tv show of its time.

    Americans have already decided they dont care.

    The radical Democrat Socialists will fail to convict President Trump in the a Senate and will face retribution of Biblical proportions in November.

    Count on it.

    thats more or less the regular viewrship of prime time nbc/cnn/fox so your really only getting the people who are already interested in it watching and not reaching a wider audience.

    Name calling and impossible threats makes Earl look weak. He could just say he thinks trump will eke out another victory, which is very possible. Instead, he is claiming landslides, and epic victories. trump should consider himself lucky if he ekes out the narrowest victory.

    The Democrats are, for the most part, radicals, Walter. A SOCIALIST is a presidential candidate. For Socialism to succeed, Capitalism must be destroyed. That’s a bit radical, right, Walter?

    I call them as I see them and the radical Democrat Socialist party is as far left as it can go without having a Communist as their candidate.

    Old Bernie spent his honeymoon in the old USSR, perhaps he is not a Socialist but a C....

    Claiming that Hillary was up by 12 points in a landslide was a bit threatening.

    Lol

    Why do Democrats not want the so called whistleblower or Hunter Biden to testify?

    Have Zelensky testify that he didn't feel pressured. Anyone voting for removal after that is proving their motivation isn't facts but politics.

    Rep. Al Green (D - Texas 9) - "I'm Concerned If We Don't Impeach This President, He Will Get Re-Elected". Clearly, Al knows Democrats can't win at the ballot box.

    On a side note, Al represents a district that has 1 in 5 on food stamps and has a built in guarantee of a minority winning the district.

    Not a Marxist America Hater but I'll answer. No. Jimmy Carter benefited briefly because of some dissatisfaction but it took a Reagan to show just how much of an idiot Carter really is.
