More than half of Americans believe that US President Donald Trump has committed offenses that are grounds for impeachment, the process by which a legislature can bring a public official to political account. This is according to a new public opinion poll, reported on 22 October 2026 by the Ukrainian outlet Pravda, citing the American outlet Politico.

In the poll, 54% of respondents agreed that Trump has broken the law to a degree that justifies impeachment proceedings. This means a slim majority of those surveyed hold this view.

What the source does not say

The report does not name the organization that conducted the poll, the number of people surveyed or the exact questions asked. It also does not say whether there are currently calls in Congress to begin impeachment. Such details would be needed to fully assess the significance of the result.

All the facts above come from a very brief news item. It gives no further detail on the poll's methodology or its political consequences.
