On Wednesday, a new Fox News poll shows that 51 percent of respondents support the impeachment of President Donald Trump–and removing him from office. Support for both was up nine points from an earlier poll published on July 19th.
This new poll shows an additional four percent believe Trump should remain in office if impeached, while 40 percent opposed impeachment. Five percent said they were undecided.
“The poll comes as House Democrats are attempting to move expeditiously with an impeachment inquiry against President Trump over a partisan CIA officer mischaracterization the president’s summer telephone call with the leader of Ukraine in a so-called ‘whistleblower’ complaint,” Breitbart reports. “Both the credibility of the so-called ‘whistleblower’ and his complaint have come in question as the officer was revealed as a registered Democrat with a previous ‘professional relationship’ with a Democratic presidential candidate, while his accusations are based on secondhand information.”

“His chief claim is that President Trump pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to look into allegations of corruption against former Vice President and White House hopeful Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Both President Trump and Zelensky have vehemently denied any pressured was applied and the White House released a transcript of their call to illustrate no wrongdoing occurred,” Breitbart notes.
The Fox News poll found 43 percent believe President Trump’s comments during his call with Zelensky on July 25th were impeachable. 27 percent said that while the comments were inappropriate, they were not impeachable. 17 percent believe his comments were appropriate.
The poll surveyed 1,003 registered voters and was conducted by telephone between October 6th-8th.
RELATED: Fox News Poll Shows Trump Losing to Every Top 2020 Democratic Candidate
It should be of some concern to the White House that a non-liberal outlet, Fox News, is finding even a small majority in favor of both impeaching and ousting the President from office.
Perception is reality, and while many Americans understand that Democrats have been conducting a witch hunt against Trump from day one, if a majority of American have lost faith in him and his office, that does not bode well for the rest of his first term and certainly doesn’t set the right tone for the 2020 election.
President Trump will no doubt fight this and hopefully truth will win out. Maybe when Americans learn all the facts, these poll numbers will change. The President should certainly hope so.

I don't get it, Fox News has always been conservative right leaning for years, and now that they are starting to swing left, it's all "fake news?" Come on people, you can't have it both ways and cherry pick what you want, and because you don't like the results call it "fake news." You "can't have your cake, and eat it too." I never liked that saying but you all know what it means. With that said, I will admit statistics can be manipulated and analyzed in different ways causing issues with the final results, but hopefully the samples are correctly taken. It's definitely not a perfect science, but stop calling everything you disagree with "fake news." You are all beginning to sound like a bunch of children arguing at a playground saying "you're stupid," and the other kid's response is, "no, you're stupid." The conversation clearly shows they're both stupid.
That's it, I am gonna block FOX news from my cable, I don't care what my Dad says, it's GONE, it's out of here!!
I think that the only reason the demorats want Trump impeached is that he has stopped them from filling their pockets with our money like they always have.
calling bullshit!!!!!
YEAH, RIGHT!!! THEY THINK THEY ARE DEALING WITH CHILDREN. THEY USE THE OLDEST TRICK IN THE BOOK!!! NINCOMPOOPS...
Well, Trump finally pissed off the bad actors and war profiteers of Military Industrial Complex (MIC). After tossing all the red meat funding their direction, relaxing the rules of engagement, and rebuilding and updating the military, all the "hawks" are having a big hissy sissy fit that they can't keep killing our young men in pointless wars for the purposes of financing their own growing fortunes and aggrandizement. The MIC, we finally know who pulls the strings of Fox (news) and establishment Republicans.
Actually, I thought the question asked was 'Should Congress proceed with an Impeachment Inquiry?' Which is an entirely different matter.
When the media talks about the different polls showing this or that, I have never once been contacted for my opinion. Has anyone else on here ever been contacted? As President Trump says "fake news".........
Not just that....they under sampled Independents by 22%. They are as opposed to impeachment as the GOP. Braun Research does Fox`s polls...they are a married lesbian couple who are radical progressives. It should be "Fraud News Poll".
Since Paul Ryan joined Fox, I wouldn’t believe a freaking thing they say !!
