The American People See A Difference Between Biden And Trump On Classified Documents

Buried inside a new ABC News poll about Biden and Trump and classified documents, which ABC News gave a both sides are the same title, was the finding that the American people don’t view Biden and Trump as the same.

From ABC News:

Over three-quarters of the public, 77%, feel that Trump acted inappropriately in the way he handled classified files, while 64%, say the same of Biden. Condemnation expectedly aligns along party lines, with 96% of Democrats saying that Trump's handling of classified documents was not appropriate compared to 47% of Republicans.

More than eight in 10 independents (83%), believe that Trump's behavior was inappropriate, per the ABC News/Ipsos poll conducted using Ipsos' KnowledgePanel.

Reaction to Biden's actions on this matter similarly varies by party, with 89% of Republicans saying that Biden's handling of classified documents was not appropriate compared to 38% of Democrats and two-thirds of independents (66%).

The ABC News poll reaffirms the reality that America is so partisan that polling on any question will break down along party lines. Importantly, there is a consistent 13-14 point difference on the question severity.

Trump remains completely toxic to Independent voters, but both among Independents and the overall sample, Trump’s actions are viewed by more people as severe.

We’ll talk below about why this is a bad sign for House Republicans and their planned investigations.
