Not because Fox was attacking Trump, we've come to expect that, but because if that were true Pelosi would have had a formal vote on impeachment. She's desperately avoiding that because she knows that it would be suicidal for Democrats running in red states.
Well the folks at the New York Post looked at the information in the poll and discovered that 48% of the people sampled were Democrats when only 31% of Americans are Democrats.
Clearly that would skew the results dramatically against Trump.
Now according to the Post if we assume that there aren't other deliberate flaws in the sampling correcting for the Democrat overabundance would show the country evenly split over impeachment.
That too is a bit odd but it could be true given the non-stop lying by the #FakeNews media.
However one has to wonder if questions weren't worded in a manner as to elicit a response that wasn't in fact representative.
For example these two questions would get dramatically different responses:
1) Given that President Trump tied military aid to Ukraine to Ukraine investigating Joe Biden do you think that Trump should be impeached
2) Given that President Trump asked the Ukraine to investigate charges of corruption related to Joe Biden having a prosecutor who was investigating his son fired should Trump be impeached.
While those are extremes even subtly different wordings can drive significant swings in people's responses.
We've seen this before; dishonest media types who hate Trump will use polls designed to elicit a condemnation of Trump to try and hurt Trump.
