A majority of registered voters approve of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia and possible obstruction of justice charges against President Trump and members of his administration, according to a Fox News poll released Wednesday.

The poll revealed that 59 percent of registered voters approve of Mueller’s investigation, marking an 11-point jump from respondents who said the same in a July Fox News poll. Thirty-seven percent of respondents said they disapprove of Mueller's probe.

It is unclear whether some people were polled after news broke Tuesday that Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, was convicted of eight counts of tax and bank fraud and after the president's former longtime attorney Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to eight charges, including one of campaign finance violations.

The Cohen and Manafort developments marked a significant breakthrough for Mueller's investigation, putting Trump and his allies on the offensive. The conviction and guilty plea do not rule out the possibility of either former Trump associate cooperating with Mueller's probe in order to reduce potential jail sentences.

Against banana republicans in Congress it'll go a lot higher who approves of him doing his job he was given, and a lot of these criminals in Congress should be very scared of whats coming . Anyone taking putin money for anything will be in deep , deep trouble, and they know it. That's why they want to promote this latest guy to the highest court now, to protect themselves and trump with. Vote people , we deserve a government not corrupt, not filled with liars, and not taking money from putin. Mueller is a Nation hero to this country, and he should be memorialized for everything he's done, and is doing FOR us , and this country.
