Most Americans APPROVE Of FBI's Search Of Mar A Lago

According to the latest round of polling, Donald Trump likely isn't going to continue to enjoy the poll bounce from the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago that he got just a week ago. The new polling data shows that a majority of Americans APPROVE of the FBI's search and seizure, and only HALF of Republicans believe it was an abuse of power. This isn't going to translate very well for Trump's polling hopes, and it could mean that the more information that comes out, the worse it gets for him with all American voters. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

According to multiple different new polls. Donald Trump is not looking as hot as he did just a week ago because a majority of Americans actually approve of the FBI's search and seizure down there at Mara Lago. Now just a week ago, Donald Trump of course got a bump in his personal poll numbers and a huge bump in fundraising as a result of the search down at Malago. But the public opinion polls show that one, a majority of Americans support the FBI. Two, a majority of them support this raid, which again, I don't even like using that word, but it's a lot easier than just saying search and seizure every single time. So here's the numbers folks. 54% said they were okay with the DOJs actions. Only 36% say they were not okay. 57% of Americans say they disapprove of Trump taking nuclear weapons related documents tomorrow Lago only 57.

Interesting. So, so does that mean that 43% of Americans are just like, ah, I don't care if he took nuclear documents down there, whatever this is America, you take whatever documents you want. Um, I would expect the 57 to be a much bigger number. So that's a little shocking, isn't it? Um, but then when you look at another new poll, a Reuter's I O poll, it shows that only half of the Republicans in this country, only half of them side with Donald Trump over the FBI, here it is, uh, 54% of Republican respondents said the FBI and justice department have behaved irresponsibly following the Mar Lago search compared to 23%, who said they behaved responsibly. The rest said they didn't know. So 23% said, yeah, we're okay with it. 23% said, no, no. And 54% of Republicans said, oh, I don't like what they did, but only 54% Donald Trump, isn't gonna get a big bump in the polls from only having half the Republican party say that the FBI was wrong.

And this has all happened. As I pointed out in the span of a week, just imagine what's gonna happen as more and more information continues to come out. That's why I told you earlier this week, those knee-jerk reaction polls taken immediately after the, uh, raid on Malago meant nothing. These polls do matter. And it shows that the vast majority of Americans and only half of Republicans kind of okay. Kind of not bothered by it. And I would expect that the number of Americans okay with it is going to increase dramatically. As we learn more about what Donald Trump did and which documents he took.
