THE NOTE: The damage Pres. Trump has done to himself with his efforts against Joe Biden could be incalculable. So too could the damage he’s doing to the former vice president.
For all the inconsistencies in President Donald Trump’s responses to the scandal that threatens to consume his presidency, one piece hasn’t moved: the effort to attack Joe Biden.
It all comes at a vulnerable moment for Biden’s candidacy. Sen. Elizabeth Warren has been emerging as a strong potential primary opponent. Biden was outraised last quarter not just by Warren but also Sen. Bernie Sanders and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, fueling concerns about Biden’s grassroots appeal. He may not have been right at the time. But if he’s right going forward, that’s an awkward place for the former vice president and his family.According to FiveThirtyEight’s impeachment tracker, which averages polls that gauge Americans’ views on impeachment, in the last week alone Americans’ support for impeachment has been on a steady rise.
Remember, the number of voters who self-identify as independents has been very high the last few years, by some estimates as high as 40% of all voters. One of the nation's top Republican leaders is already seizing the moment in hopes of bolstering GOP support. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell -- who is also up for reelection next year -- is now signaling a direct endgame to the unfolding impeachment proceedings.
