Republicans are claiming that polls are swinging in their favor on impeachment.

But a new CNN poll shows the number of Americans favoring impeachment and removal of Trump remains at levels unmatched by any modern president—except the week before Nixon’s resignation.

These numbers should be a warning sign for Republicans. Here’s what the latest polling shows us:

Finally getting a few more impeachment polls and the notion that the numbers are moving against Democrats isn't looking so hot. +4 spread on supporting impeachment/removal, which is similar to the peak in October.https://t.co/Tj71WyGT4x pic.twitter.com/S7iUHaRdlX
