Donald Trump was impeached twice during his first presidency. Now, a poll says a majority of Americans support doing it again.
According to a new Strength In Numbers/Verasight poll from this month, 55 percent of respondents support another Trump impeachment.
“A new Strength In Numbers/Verasight poll conducted April 10-14, 2026, finds 55% of U.S. adults say the House should vote to impeach Trump. 37% oppose, and 8% are unsure. A surprising percentage of both Republicans and Trump’s own 2024 voters say they would support impeachment if a vote were held today,” the Strength in Numbers article about the poll said.
That number, Strength in Numbers said, is comparable to those faced by President Richard Nixon, around the time he was facing impeachment before his resignation in the summer of 1974.

“As for the president’s overall approval rating, there is a strong intensity gap in responses to our poll. Overall, 45% of all adults say they strongly support impeachment, while only 30% say they strongly oppose it,” Strength in Numbers said. “That is a 15-point intensity gap in favor of impeachment — the people who want Trump out are both more numerous and more committed than the people who want him to stay.”
There have been a few efforts by Democrats in Congress to push impeachment, including Rep. John Larson (D-CT), who has introduced 13 articles of impeachment against Trump. However, it’s unlikely that there’s any chance of Trump being impeached this year, especially with Republicans still controlling a majority in Congress. That could, however, change next year, should Democrats gain control of one or both houses of Congress.
“My big takeaway from this chart is that all but three groups support impeaching Trump: Republicans, Trump’s 2024 voters, and seniors (who oppose impeachment by 4 points, 47-51). On the other side, independents (including leaners) split 50-28 in favor, and non-voters, who may have slightly voted for Trump over Harris in 2024, back impeachment 53-25,” the Substack post explaining the results said.
