Poll: Most Americans don’t think Trump will be cleared in Mueller report

A majority of Americans don’t believe that Robert Mueller’s report on the results of the years-long special counsel investigation into Russia’s election interference will exonerate President Trump, according to a new poll.

In a poll from the left-leaning group Navigator, first reported by Politico, just 30 percent of respondents said they accept Trump and his allies’ assertion that the report fully clears Trump of wrongdoing following Attorney General William Barr’s summary of Mueller’s findings that stated the special counsel had found no evidence to link Trump’s campaign to Russia, and did not take a position on whether he had obstructed justice.

Fifty-one percent of respondents, including 46 percent of independent voters, now say that they fear that the Trump administration “will get away with corruption, unethical behavior or mishandling important problems,” according to the poll.

A lower number of respondents, 42 percent, said that they worried Democrats will “go too far and abuse congressional oversight powers to attack the Trump administration,” Navigator’s polling found.

The poll conducted by the Navigator research project contacted 1,005 registered voters for the poll through online polling. It has a margin of error of 3 percentage points.
