Three-quarters of registered voters think witnesses should be allowed to testify in the Senate impeachment trial, which has reached a crucial inflection point, a new national poll from Quinnipiac University finds.

This includes 49% of Republicans who think witnesses should be allowed to testify, 75% of independents and 95% of Democrats.

The poll shows 20% of registered voters do not want witnesses called at the trial.

Almost half of registered voters (47%) want the Senate to remove Trump (48% not), the same as a poll taken earlier this month.

A majority of voters (89%) have their mind made up on whether Trump should be removed from office or not (10% say they could change their minds).

Engel Statement on September 23, 2019 Call with John Bolton
January 29, 2020

Washington—Representative Eliot L. Engel, Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, today made the following statement:

“President Trump is wrong that John Bolton didn’t say anything about the Trump-Ukraine Scandal at the time the President fired him. He said something to me.

“On September 19, shortly after Ambassador Bolton’s departure as national security advisor, my staff reached out to him at my request. I’ve known Ambassador Bolton for years; we have a cordial and respectful relationship and I wanted to thank him for his service. I also wanted to ask if he would talk to the Foreign Affairs Committee, as former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson did, to aid our general oversight efforts of U.S. foreign policy.

“He and I spoke by telephone on September 23. On that call, Ambassador Bolton suggested to me—unprompted—that the committee look into the recall of Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch. He strongly implied that something improper had occurred around her removal as our top diplomat in Kyiv.

“At the time, I said nothing publicly about what was a private conversation, but because this detail was relevant to the Foreign Affairs, Intelligence, and Oversight Committees’ investigation into this matter, I informed my investigative colleagues. It was one of the reasons we wished to hear from Ambassador Bolton, under oath, in a formal setting.

“Ambassador Bolton has made clear over the last few months that he has more to say on this issue. And now that the President has called his credibility into question, it’s important to set the record straight.

“It’s telling that, of all people, John Bolton is now the target of right-wing ire. It underscores just how important it is that the Senate subpoena Ambassador Bolton as a witness.”

Voi olla näin republikaanikannattajien osalta mutta tuskin sitoutumattomien kohdalla, joista heistäkin 75% kannattaa todistajia. Mä luulen että tälle joukolle ei oiken putoaisi pelkän Hunter Bidenin kärrääminen senaatin eteen. Seuraavia vaaleja ajatellen pitäisi yrittää miellyttää oman ydinporukan ohella myös noita aidalla istujia.
