(POLL) Most voters think Dept. of Justice now politicized

Dated: August 27, 2022 by Sharyl Attkisson 4 Comments

      

A majority of American voters believe the federal Department of Justice’s investigation of former President Donald Trump is politically motivated. However, most of them still approve of the investigation.

This is according to the latest Rasmussen Reports.

Survey results found that 54% of likely U.S. voters approve of the investigation of Trump over alleged mishandling of presidential documents, including 44% who "strongly approve."

Forty-one percent (41%) disapprove, including 32% who "strongly disapprove."

Documents show that White House officials worked with the Department of Justice to facilitate the Trump investigation.  

Sixty percent (60%) of voters think it’s likely the DOJ investigation of Trump is politically motivated, including 46% who say it’s "very likely."

Thirty-six percent (36%) don’t believe the Trump investigation was motivated by politics.

Unsurprisingly, opinions about the DOJ investigation of Trump are largely divided along party lines.

  • Eighty percent (80%) of Democratic voters approve of the investigation, including 69% who strongly approve
  • Sixty-eight percent (68%) of Republicans disapprove of the investigation, including 53% who strongly disapprove
  • Among voters unaffiliated with either major party, 52% approve and 42% disapprove of the DOJ investigation of Trump

    I don't trust Rasmussen. They always seem to be the poll I think doesn't make sense. 50% voted for Trump why would 54%want him investigated?

      Because people didn't necessarily vote for him because they liked him. In both elections he was the best garbage in the alley. (aka lesser of two evils). That's what the left and TDS sufferers don't understand.

    I wonder if 80% of Democrats will approve of an investigation of the soon to be Former President Biden.

    Trump did nothing wrong, they just want him dead or in jail so their evil does not get exposed. They want to cover up their crimes. The hate in America is growing in abundance and nobody seems to care.
