Altogether, about nine out of every ten Democrats polled and just two in ten Republicans majority said they want Trump to leave office before his term ends.

30% said the president should be removed using provisions in the 25th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which allows the vice president and Cabinet to remove the president if he is unable to discharge his official duties.

Another 14% said Congress should impeach and remove Trump from office, and 13% said Trump should simply resign.
