The charts above are from the newest USA Today / Suffolk University Poll -- done between October 23rd and 26th of a national sample of 1,000 registered voters, and has a 3 point margin of error.
Donald Trump has called the House impeachment inquiry a witch hunt, and refused to comply with any House subpoenas (both for information and testimony by individuals). But most voters disagree with him about both.
The public says the inquiry is not a witch hunt by a nearly 14 point margin (53.7% to 40%), and that Trump has an obligation to comply with House subpoenas by nearly a 40 point margin (65.6% to 26%).
But when it come to impeaching Trump and removing him from office, the nation is split. About 45.5% say he should be impeached and removed, while 46.9% say he should not. That difference of 1.4 points is well within the poll's margin of error.
But we need to remember that the public did not want Nixon impeached until after the House conducted public hearings and the nation heard witnesses for themselves. So far, there have been no public hearings regarding the impeachment of Trump. But they are coming very soon, and that could well affect the public's opinion.
