On Politics: Will Impeachment Change 2020?

Public opinion has shifted about impeachment, but not about the president. Here’s what that means.

I’m Lisa Lerer, your host. Illustration by Sasha Portis Picture this: a president enjoying the lowest unemployment rate in decades and a booming stock market. He is about to notch a major legislative victory with the passage of a significant trade deal, has appointed two Supreme Court justices and has signed a major tax bill into law. Most voters say they’re better off financially than when he took office, [according to polling this week](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0TraHR0cHM6Ly9wb2xsLnF1LmVkdS9uYXRpb25hbC9yZWxlYXNlLWRldGFpbD9SZWxlYXNlSUQ9MzY1MSZ0ZT0xJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzIHdpdGggbGlzYSBsZXJlciZlbWM9ZWRpdF9jbl8yMDE5MTIxMT9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xNDQ3MSZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE5NTIyJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1Ml9jbl8yMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). Things seem to be going great. Now, imagine this: a polarizing president under investigation, mocked by allies abroad and assailed at home with an understaffed administration. He’s about to be impeached by the House and undergo a divisive trial in the Senate. Nearly half of voters believe he should be removed from office and 60 percent say they’re unsatisfied with the direction of the country, [according to polling this week](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0TraHR0cHM6Ly9wb2xsLnF1LmVkdS9uYXRpb25hbC9yZWxlYXNlLWRldGFpbD9SZWxlYXNlSUQ9MzY1MSZ0ZT0xJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzIHdpdGggbGlzYSBsZXJlciZlbWM9ZWRpdF9jbl8yMDE5MTIxMT9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xNDQ3MSZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE5NTIyJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1Ml9jbl8yMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~).

Take Mr. Trump’s approval rating. Shortly after he entered office, it hovered around 43 percent, [according to the Gallup tracking poll](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP4QAAWh0dHBzOi8vbmV3cy5nYWxsdXAuY29tL3BvbGwvMjAzMTk4L3ByZXNpZGVudGlhbC1hcHByb3ZhbC1yYXRpbmdzLWRvbmFsZC10cnVtcC5hc3B4P3RlPTEmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mgd2l0aCBsaXNhIGxlcmVyJmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMTkxMjExP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE0NDcxJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTk1MjImdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyMjAxOTEyMTFXA255dEIKAChRfPFduC5wzVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). The most recent rating? Forty-three percent. Whatever you thought of the president in January 2017 is likely what you think about him today. Even Americans’ changing positions on impeachment do not correspond with any shift in their fundamental views about Mr. Trump. The percentage of Americans who back impeaching the president has grown since the summer, up 10 points to 45 percent in [a poll released today](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0T3aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubW9ubW91dGguZWR1L3BvbGxpbmctaW5zdGl0dXRlL3JlcG9ydHMvbW9ubW91dGhwb2xsX3VzXzEyMTExOS8_dGU9MSZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcyB3aXRoIGxpc2EgbGVyZXImZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAxOTEyMTE_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTQ0NzEmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xOTUyMiZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTIyMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) by the Monmouth University Polling Institute. But the increase in support stems from those who already held negative views about Mr. Trump and have come around to the idea of impeachment as a smart strategy, pollsters say.

Well, about what you’d expect. Most strategists, pollsters and campaign officials expect the next general election, like the previous one, to be a close and nasty race, fought on the margins. Because Americans’ views on Mr. Trump are already set, Mr. Murray argues that much of the campaign will turn into a referendum on the Democratic nominee. “The campaign is not going to be about changing opinion about Donald Trump,” he says. “It’s going to be about hammering away at the Democratic nominee and bloodying them up so much that people will stick with the guy they know.” [Continue reading the main story](#a11y-skip-2) ADVERTISEMENT ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0RtaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9NzIzMjk3JmxpPUNOJm09YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcD1DTl8yMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~ ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0RtaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9NzIzMjk4JmxpPUNOJm09YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcD1DTl8yMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~ ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0RtaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9NzIzMzAwJmxpPUNOJm09YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcD1DTl8yMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~ Drop us a line!

A big endorsement from a small city paper The Storm Lake Times Here’s an update from Sydney Ember, our political reporter who has moved to Iowa: There are 54 days until the Iowa caucuses. Yes, I am counting. On Wednesday, Elizabeth Warren secured one of the most highly coveted endorsements in the first-in-the-nation nominating state: that of Art Cullen, the Pulitzer Prize-winning editor of The Storm Lake Times in rural northwestern Iowa. Mr. Cullen won the Pulitzer Prize in 2017 for editorial writing and since then has become something of a national celebrity and rural America whisperer. He is easily identifiable at Iowa events by his horseshoe mustache and mop of white hair. In [his endorsement](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3Rvcm1sYWtlLmNvbS9hcnRpY2xlcy8yMDE5LzEyLzExL3dhcnJlbi1iZXN0LWNob2ljZS1ncmVhdC1maWVsZD90ZT0xJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzIHdpdGggbGlzYSBsZXJlciZlbWM9ZWRpdF9jbl8yMDE5MTIxMT9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xNDQ3MSZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE5NTIyJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MjIwMTkxMjExVwNueXRCCgAoUXzxXbgucM1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~), Mr. Cullen shared some kind words about other candidates, including Joe Biden, Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg. Bernie Sanders, he wrote, “thunders the truth.” He even praised John Delaney. But he saved his most favorable review for Ms. Warren, writing that she was the paper’s “first choice among a marvelous field.” “Elizabeth Warren is fighting on principle like nobody else to give us a chance,” he wrote. Mr. Cullen has endorsed presidential candidates before. (During the 2008 election, he [endorsed Joe Biden](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf1AFRP4QCAWh0dHBzOi8vdGhlY2F1Y3VzLmJsb2dzLm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMDcvMTAvMjAvYmlkZW4tbGFuZHMtYW4taW93YS1wYXBlci1lbmRvcnNlbWVudC8_dGU9MSZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcyB3aXRoIGxpc2EgbGVyZXImZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAxOTEyMTE_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTQ0NzEmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xOTUyMiZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTIyMDE5MTIxMVcDbnl0QgoAKFF88V24LnDNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~).) But if his endorsements matter in Iowa, his prominent status post-Pulitzer makes his decision all the more significant. Still, as with any endorsements coming out of Iowa, it is not clear how much it will change the race. Ms. Warren has lost some of her luster in Iowa since early in the fall, eclipsed in state polls by Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind. And though Bernie Sanders has perhaps not gotten as much media attention as some of his competitors, he has steadily remained a serious contender. Who knows what will happen in the next eight weeks? All I know is it’s going to be cold.
