'Democrats and Republicans are working hard to make their cases on impeachment. But is anyone open to being persuaded?' | Analysis by CNN's LaurenDezenski

But the American public isn't optimistic that minds will change.A new poll from Monmouth University found 71% say they believe Americans are set in their opinions on the impeachment inquiry, regardless of new information that comes to light. Only 24% say that new information in the impeachment inquiry could change the minds of the American people. That's very similar to numbers from way back in March.Overall, 45% of Americans want Trump impeached, while 50% say they do not.

In each episode of his weekly YouTube show, Chris Cillizza will delve a little deeper into the surreal world of politics. Click to subscribe! One note on timing: This poll was conducted by telephone December 4 to 8 -- well after the House's hearings had been underway but before this week's Judiciary Committee hearings.Trump is now the fourth president in US history to face articles of impeachment. That gives this entire process more historical gravitas and much higher stakes. Even if public opinion isn't moving, the entire saga will still go down in history.

Don Lemon is still a bitch

I don't care about the witch hunt. Money talks and BS walks. Healthy economy, low unemployment, building the wall, getting us out of police action wars. Campaign promises being kept. Not rocking that boat. AmericaFirst

Just a partisan circus,,,,,

The other 29% are slowing starting to see it's a sham.

Yeah most American like being kept in the dark constantly being fed full of Shit from Fox News, GOP Congress & Donald Trump. WTF are these Americans going to do when Trump bumbles into a Mid-Intensity Conflict that the All Volunteer Mil isn’t large enough to fight without a draft

Alexander Hamilton predicted as much in Federalist Paper 65. He thought impeachment was necessary in order to preserve the dignity of the office & holding our elected officials to a higher standard. He thought the Senate was the best body to decide what was best for the nation.

It’s crazy he had any support, from idiotic statements, failures after failures and corruption like no other president, his mark on history gonna show just how bad a government can get

Media corruption propaganda.

It’s OK those that don’t believe it can keep their heads in a hole on the ground

Try having the Monmouth poll ask what they think of can? Most probably don't know what it is.

They know it’s all BS and will cement Trump’s 2020 re-election. Thanks for your help!

Makes sense. Half of them are MAGAts, the other half have brains

There is nothing to impeach President Trump on. Treaty 106-16 is on Trump's side. He can ask Ukraine to look into corruption. What we heard from the witnesses were opinion,s impression or presumption which aren't evidence of wrongdoing.

Trump has done nothing wrong, your hatred and bitterness has made you all blind. 2020 will be Landslide big win for Trump..prepare yourselves emotionally bcoz you gonna cry a lot.....

Nearly 3 is 2. And 2 Out of 4 is just 50% so not worth a Post.

Does this include Ding-Dong-Don Lemon?

Is it possible that nobody can believe the news anymore so it doesn't really matter anyway?

Yup this was a huge waste of time and money. Americans are no longer behind this sham impeachment

IAmSophiaNelson Those bullshit polls don't mean anything! Impeach his ass and then remove him from office before he does any more damage or connives his way into any more deals from which he will personally profit! THAT'S what the American People are waiting for Politicians to do! LockHimUp!

Yes my mind is set and made ImpeachAndConvictTrump

Not just Americans! ..lol I hear no arguments being raised by Republicans. They cant defend trump ..but its all smokescreen and unicorns GOPISAJOKE

It surprises me the number is that low. Trump's polling has been within three points for almost two years. Our opinions are baked into the cake and there is nothing that will change most of our minds.

Yes and willing to March over it ,!

I’m fine with that as long as it means that 68% of people actually paid attention to the evidence so far and already realize he is a liar, con, and cheater.

He should be impeached but it won’t happen! He represents what America has been since the colonizers arrived!

So it's a poll about people saying what they think other people think... ...not sure I care

Trump dont care about America! If he did he would have not divided the citizens base on race or citizenship. Leaders like him is never accountable, typical leader who sits behind the office who act like he knows what hes doing. Oh yeah like alllllll rich folks do

IMPEACHNOW IMPEACH

Rusia and Ucrania are at war, even though, president Trump uses both of them to hurt Democratic Party. Is a little bit funny.

So impeach him already! I’m tired of this guy.

Duh. We are coming for you MSM and establishment cronies. Nobody is distracted by your smoke and mirrors we see you. 😎🚂🇺🇸💨💨💨

You didn't need a poll to learn that. But the polls do say that more independents reject impeaching and removing our president.

MonmouthPoll I didn't need a poll to tell me that, GEEZ!

That mindset is troubling

And that would be NO you asshats. Nice try though

Everyone has figured out it’s just an attempt to overthrow government. CNN not showing Graham was icing on cake.

Impeached Clown Barker Donald J Trump would like to announce 'mommy'.

I think you're more upset that more people choose to think for themselves instead of trusting the garbage you're trying to shove down their throats everyday.

Fake poll manipulation poll

Who his need to be put out of office because he will sell out his country for a gain to many people because of him

60% appear to support the obstruction article of impeachment.

Yep. Thanks for winning Trump re-election.

Again another useless study. You don’t have to be a scholar to figure some things out🙄🙄. And durn it I am sick and tired of your polls CNN your polls helped us get into this mess! Predicting Hillary Clinton would win and people stayed home. You making everyone delirious!

Judging by twitter that number is a LOT higher. Republicans will follow Trump no matter what comes to light. And Dems will want to impeach no matter what comes to light.

LaurenDezenski Hang on... 3 out of 4 of you *won’t* change your minds, but if you are roughly 50/50 Rep/Dem, then surely 2 out of 3 of those non-mind-changers will be anti-Trump Dems.... so the 1 out of 4 that *will* change their minds must be Rep voters. Right? Therefore 50% of Rep voters?

LaurenDezenski Nope... but it's time to take stand...

LaurenDezenski No. So please stop labeling it “Committee Debating” the articles on your live coverage. No one is engaged in a debate. They are giving speeches and talking at each other.

LaurenDezenski Wake me up in about 20 more years when they’re all dead.

LaurenDezenski Being bombastically loud and screaming at We the American People does not make a better case for any Congressional Representative! It is a very sad and challenging time in our Republic to see our Democracy eroding before our very eyes! Frank Brewster III

LaurenDezenski At least that's better than nothing
