A string of House hearings have done nothing to sway public opinion on whether Donald Trump should be impeachment and removed from office, a poll released Tuesday reveals.

While 50 per cent of Americans believe the president should be impeached and removed from office, 43 per cent say he should not, according to a CNN/SSRS poll conducted November 21-24 – after the House Intelligence Committee held five public hearings with witnesses connected to the impeachment inquiry.

The results, however, are exactly the same as they were in an October poll released weeks before any public testimony, which was also conducted by CNN/SSRS.

The only change between the overall results of the two polls was 7 per cent of respondents said they did not have an opinion on the matter in October and that figure dropped to 6 per ent in the November poll.

Two separate polls conducted by CNN found that public support for impeachment has no wavered pre and post-open impeachment hearings. Support for impeachment and removal remained at 50 per cent in October and November and with 43 per cent saying the president should not be impeached in both polls

The unchanged support for Donald Trump's impeachment appears to indicate the five-days of public hearings did not alter Americans' opinion of the proceedings

The polls exhibit the partisan divide in the country over impeachment, with 90 per cent of Democratic in November saying they support removing the president and 10 per cent of Republicans saying the opposite. Independents are much more split on the matter

Both polls, however, exhibit the partisan divide over the impeachment investigation into Trump.

In the post-hearing poll, 10 per cent of Republicans say they believe Trump should be impeached and removed from office, a rise of 4 per cent from the October survey.

On the other hand, 90 per cent of Democrats who participated in the poll feel Trump should be impeached, up from 87 per cent in last month's poll.

Independent voters are split on the issue, with 50 per cent saying he should be impeached in the October poll and a drop of 3 per cent to 47 per cent saying the president should be removed from office in the November poll.

Public testimony commenced Wednesday Nov. 13 when former Trump Ambassador to Ukraine Bill Taylor and Deputy Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian Affairs George Kent participated in a joint hearing.

Two days later, former Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch testified.

Potentially the most groundbreaking testimony of all came from U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, who appeared before the Intelligence Committee, which is chaired by Adam Schiff, on Nov. 20.

He said Trump did set a quid pro quo with Ukraine, which are the allegations that led to the launch of the impeachment inquiry.

Even with Sondland's bombshell testimony, Americans remain unwavered in their opinions of impeachment.

Schiff has not yet indicated if the House will vote to recommend impeachment to the Senate – where the inquiry is more than likely to die in the Republican-controlled chamber.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff held five public hearings this month with witnesses tied to the impeachment inquiry. He has not yet announced if the House will vote to recommend impeachment to the Republican-controlled Senate

The support for impeachment, surprisingly, also didn't change even after Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland said in his sworn testimony that Donald Trump did set a quid pro quo with Ukraine

The poll shows Trump's approval rating holding steady pre and post-impeachment testimony with 42 per cent approval.

Americans are also evenly divided over whether there is enough evidence after the sworn testimony for the House to vote to impeach the President and send him to trial before the Senate, with 48 per cent claiming there is enough and 47 per cent saying otherwise.

A total of 1,003 adults were interviewed by telephone in the October poll, and among those surveyed, 30 per cent described themselves as Democrats, 26 per cent as Republicans and 44 per cent as independents or members of another party.

This was very similar to the demographics of the November poll, where 1,007 adults were contacted by phone. Thirty-one per cent of the November participants said they were Democrat, 25% Republicans and 44 per cent independent or part of a third party.

Both polls have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.
