When asked about the president's actions in Ukraine, 38 percent said they believed Trump did something illegal, 29 percent said they believed he did something unethical but not illegal and 30 percent said he did nothing wrong.

Trump has denied wrongdoing.

Researchers surveyed 1,075 adults between Oct. 24-28. The margin of error is 4.1 percentage points.
