Two-Thirds of Americans Say Justice Department Must Charge Trump

This figure is up markedly from the 52% who felt this way six weeks ago, but that was before the January 6th Committee’s televised hearings.

In an earlier post, I wrote that this percentage will top out at a certain level; it has a hard limit that is built in by the fact that some people are incapable of changing their minds, regardless of the strength and nature of the evidence.

I’m going to predict that, by the time the indictments are unsealed, the percentage of Americans who believe that charging Trump was the right thing to do will have hit 75%, a 3:1 margin.  And, by the time he goes to trial, it will have maxed out at 80% (4:1).
