Americans split on whether Democrats should keep investigating Trump after Mueller made no determination on obstruction, poll finds
Special Counsel Robert Mueller walks to his car after attending services at St. John's Episcopal Church, across from the White House, in Washington, Sunday, March 24, 2019. Mueller closed his long and contentious Russia investigation with no new charges, ending the probe that has cast a dark shadow over Donald Trump's presidency.
Nearly 8 in 10 Republicans say they feel “satisfied” with the investigation’s conclusions, a strikingly positive assessment for a group that widely disapproved of Mueller’s handling of the investigation just last month. Among Republicans, 15 percent think Trump committed serious wrongdoing, while 21 percent think he obstructed justice. Independents are split about evenly on both questions, with just under half both faulting Trump for serious wrongdoing and saying he obstructed justice.
In January, a Post-ABC News poll found that 57 percent of the public supported House Democrats’ investigating whether Trump’s campaign conspired with Russia, while 59 percent supported investigating Trump’s relationship and communications with Putin.
