Quote:President Donald Trump is facing impeachment from Democrats with help from media outlets that are also working against him, a new poll found the majority of Americans to believe.
Respondents to a Rasmussen Reports survey were asked, “When they write or talk about the impeachment effort, are most reporters trying to help impeach President Trump or block his impeachment? Or are most reporters simply interested in reporting the news in an unbiased manner?”
A majority, or 53 percent, said they think most reporters are trying to help impeach President Trump when they write or talk about impeachment. On the other hand, 32 percent said that most reporters are interested in reporting the news in an unbiased manner.
Eight percent said most reporters are trying to help Trump by attempting to block the impeachment efforts against him.
Of the majority who think reporters are actively working to assist in the impeachment efforts, 76 percent of Republicans, 48 percent of Independents, and 36 percent of Democrats agreed with the statement.
Some 860 of the 1,000 likely voters said they’ve been following news about the impeachment and 54 percent said they’ve been following very closely. Among those voters, 58 percent, or a higher percentage, said reporters are trying to help impeach Trump.
Among respondents who said they strongly approve of the job Trump is doing, nine out of ten said reporters are trying to help impeach him; among those who strongly disapprove of Trump’s job performance, only 16 percent said reporters are assisting in the impeachment efforts.
The survey was conducted by Rasmussen from Nov. 12 to Nov. 13 and had an error of plus/minus three percent.

All the news media outlets want to reach the "height of influence" standard, which was the resignation of Nixon. They all dream of being able to contribute to the removal of a US president.
You can fool some of the people all of the time. You can fool all of the people some of the time. But you cant fool all of the people all of the time. I think the media's Russia Russia Russia full court press represents a Waterloo of sorts for the traditional lame stream media as the primary influence on public opinion. Never again will that many people believe their hysterical Orange Man Bad narrative. I suspect the loudest most biased voices in lame stream media have no idea how badly they have damaged the "fourth estate" of government.
The dumbest brick in the pile can see what the MSM and the Dems are doing. They lost an election and just can't deal with it. They are seriously deranged and their attempts to overturn a legal election will be their downfall eventually.
So? You got a poll from a site that Russian bots could vote that way? There is 51% of the people from real polls do not see it that way. The majority of the country want Trump impeach. Over 20% of college age Republicans want Trump impeached. Junior got heckled at a far right group where the people with him stormed off the stage.

Funny how a survey sampling that isnt 60-70% Democrat indicates the nation isnt as dim as some of the Dem-bots think it is. People arent stupid. They know this is a foreign policy dispute---not a violation of any law. Delve into this Biden/Burisma stuff with the same gusto as they did Russia Russia Russia and that lame cover up Crazy Joe and his son are using will melt like an ice creme cone on a hot Phoenix sidewalk. Not to mention the IG report is lurking out there just a few days from dropping. I have a feeling that impeachment will be a weak page two story once that bombshell hits.

Trying to figure out who the 8% are? Just trolling the media? Or flat out totally lock them up now crazy?

Cite your sources or retract. And what constitutes a real poll in your mind?
You don't get to express an opinion and call it fact here.

Who said something about the dumbest brick?
The best polls out there are the ones where live reporters go out and ask people on the street if they want the president impeached. Those that answer yes are then asked what he should be impeached for. Mindless stares follow....

There is like 25% of this country are said to be registered Republicans, another 31% are Democrats. That is 56% that are identified themselves as either party. The majority are Registered Independents who think both parties left us behind. That is where most of the views are starting to lean against Trump.

More like 31% dems. 29% Rep. 38% indy. But if you delve into it---most indy's arent really as indy as you might think---they tend to lean one way or the other. Many, perhaps even most, "indys" are really soft republicans or soft democrats.

David - stick to the college football threads, you are a much better poster over there.....
There is NO doubt the media is working with the D's to try and impeach Trump. It's a reason why more and more people are actually moving towards Trump, myself included.
I'm very much in that majority.
