Story highlights 55% say they trust what Comey says about Russian interference "just some" or "not at all"

But nearly three-quarters have the same level of trust with the President

Washington (CNN) On the eve of former FBI Director James Comey's highly anticipated testimony before the Senate intelligence committee, a new poll shows a majority of American adults have little trust in either Comey or President Donald Trump.

According to an ABC News/Washington Post poll released Wednesday, 55% of Americans said they trust what the former FBI director says about Russian interference "just some" or "not at all."

And 72% of those polled said that they trust Trump "just some" or "not at all" when it comes to Russia.

The poll was taken before Comey's bombshell testimony was posted online Wednesday afternoon. In the testimony, the former FBI chief, who was fired by Trump last month, said the President asked him to back off his investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn and asked what could be done to "lift the cloud" of the investigation.
