Poll i don't put any trust in. let's look at a lot of polls then. trump should be impeached, removed from office. 46/49. a lot of that is about partisanship. it's just a very -- everything at this point is viewed through the lens of partisanship. may be 49/46. this is statistical noise. the country evenly divided on that question going into the vote tomorrow. >> so cillizza, looking big picture here at the political implications for those in congress, your piece was great last night laying out the facts of what we actually saw. the last time a house moved to impeach a president back in '98, '9...

Should he be impeached and removed from office? 49% now say yes. trump should be impeached and removed from office. 46% say no. another way of looking at that is is 49/46 split looks like this, doesn't it? 2016 election. hillary clinton zbgot 48% of th vote. a question of opinion on impeachment and removal is converging on that fault line we saw on election day on 2016, the fault line defining the last two years, does opinion on impeachment converge there and does it stop there? i think that's the key question for trump in terms of the politics of surviving impeachment, if it stays here, that'...

Gosh, the president is in trouble. the politics say oh, my god, the president is fine. >> it's pretty stunning when you put those numbers out there. the thing that is kind of stunning to me is just that both republicans and democrats believe the same set of facts are true. they just don't believe whether it was wrong or not. and this just underscores how partisan capitol hill is right now. there's very little chance that any republicans you're going to see move over to that other column. >> that was what struck me in our poll, rich. oh, he can't get impeached and i don't know if he can win re-...

Blow this thing apart. it's terrible. anyway, the new poll shows that 49% of our poll approve of trump's handling of the economy, but that alone doesn't seem to be enough. among those who approve of his handling of the economy, nearly 3/4 said they would back a generic democrat. it seems to me the economy, ivan if it stays swell, which is troubling now, they're not going to vote just for that. they don't like the tweeting and the bad behavior. they're not going to vote for this guy. that's stunning to me. >> the 49/46 approval rating, if that was his overall approval rating, you'd probably say...

Frustrating as some of the tactics may be, at the end of the day, as republicans we need to stay united through 2020 and really recognize the fact that our policies that we all stand for are being carried through on and promises are being made and we need to stand behind those and then look at someone else stepping up to the plate come 2024. i don't see a credible candidate taking him on. he is raising a lot of money and the gop base is certainly in his camp. >> this "the washington post" poll shows for the first time he is in net positive territory on his handling of the economy, 49/46. rache...
