40 Percent Want Trump Impeached

Less than 2 weeks into his presidency, 40% of Americans want Donald Trump impeached, according to a new PPP poll. And only 48% of voters say that they would be opposed to Trump’s impeachment.

In case you were wondering that’s pretty unprecedented.

Americans Miss Barack Obama

The same poll showed that Americans miss Obama with 52% say they’d rather Obama was President, to only 43% who are glad Trump is.

Yep, sounds about right.

No Honeymoon Period For Trump

“Usually a newly elected president is at the peak of their popularity and enjoying their honeymoon after taking office,” PPP President Dean Debnam said in a statement.

“But Donald Trump’s making history once again with a sizeable share of voters already wanting to impeach him, and a majority of voters wishing they could have Barack Obama back.”

PPP polling found that 49 percent of voters disapprove of Trump’s performance since his inauguration on Jan. 20 and 47 percent approve.

Overall impressions of Trump remain negative, according to the poll, with 52 percent viewing him unfavorably and 45 percent viewing him favorably.

The PPP survey of 725 registered voters was conducted via phone and online interviews Jan. 30–31. It has a margin of error of 3.6 percentage points.
