I’m Lisa Lerer, your host. I have a confession: When I realized that today was exactly 30 days from the start of the impeachment inquiry, I didn’t believe it. Here in Washington, the fight over impeachment has become so all-consuming so very quickly that I can barely remember the before. It is always impeachment and always has been impeachment. Impeachment is a lifestyle. A state of being. I realize, of course, that voters — people who presumably have lives that revolve around more than the president’s tweets and closed-door testimony and [SCIFs](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRflKTDP0T1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAxOS8xMC8yMy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9vbi1wb2xpdGljcy1pbXBlYWNobWVudC1zY2lmLmh0bWw_dGU9MSZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcyB3aXRoIGxpc2EgbGVyZXImZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAxOTEwMjQ_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTMzNTUmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xODIxNyZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTJXA255dEIKACLDH7Jd34-cNVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) — may be watching the situation slightly less obsessively. Or maybe not. A series of new polls out this week shows there are plenty of signs that voters have been following the impeachment inquiry and that the latest developments have begun to shape their opinions.
