A poll by Strength in Numbers/Verasight found 55% of respondents support impeaching Trump, with 21% of Republicans and Trump's 2024 voters backing removal. The pollster compared Trump's net approval to Nixon at peak Watergate. Tucker Carlson apologized for misleading viewers into supporting Trump, citing the Iran war and economic deterioration. Independent news outlets (NYT, CNBC, Newsweek) confirm Trump's approval ratings have crashed to historic lows during the Iran conflict and economic downturn, though they do not cite this specific impeachment poll.
