Nancy Pelosi Says Public Opinion Shifting In Support Of Impeachment Inquiry

U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Saturday that public opinion is now on the side of an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump following the release of new information about his conversations with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

“In the public, the tide has completely changed; it could change now - who knows - but right now after seeing the complaint and the IG (Inspector General) report and the cavalier attitude the administration had towards it, the American peopleare coming to a different decision,” Pelosi said at a journalism event hosted by the Texas Tribune news website.

“Like in Watergate, after more evidence gets out there ...you’ll see more people of different political stripes start to support it,” Castro said at the event, referring to moves in 1974 to impeach former President Richard Nixon.

She's right. Two recent polls this week show public support has already shifted by double digits in favor of impeaching these crooks.
