Talking Points Memo reports:
President Donald Trump, referring to himself in the third person (or perhaps having one of his staff speak for him), tweeted on Wednesday that only a quarter of Americans want to see him impeached. According to a Washington Post/Schar School poll that was released earlier this week, a majority of Americans — 58 percent, in fact — are supportive of the impeachment inquiry that the House of Representatives is currently starting. Only 38 percent say they’re against the inquiry moving forward.
Only 25 percent want the President Impeached, which is pretty low considering the volume of Fake News coverage, but pretty high considering the fact that I did NOTHING wrong. It is all just a continuation of the greatest Scam and Witch Hunt in the history of our Country!

If anyone on Trump’s team or anyone else has seen a poll in which support for impeachment is only 25%, please feel free to point me to it. (The latest WaPo poll has 25% support for the impeachment inquiry *among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents*.) pic.twitter.com/jd8m4FhVFS

So why is someone a good or great President if they needed to Spy on someone else’s Campaign in order to win (that didn’t work out so well), and if they were unable to fill 142 important Federal Judgeships (a record by far), handing them all to me to choose. Will have 182 soon!
