Following impeachment, President Trump hits his highest popularity rating (Gallup poll). President Clinton, too, had a spike in his popularity after impeachment. The outlier to that pattern is Nixon whose impeachment was long, long time ago in a drastically different setting.https://twitter.com/NumbersMuncher/status/1224715109584506880 …

Also this is the definition of cherry-picking. The most recent polls show Trump roughly where he has always been.

Perhaps. But at a minimum, he didn't lose any ground from impeachment. I would put his chances of re-election higher now because it's over. He went through it without damage. Since he was obviously going to be acquitted, the only threat to him was losing ground. Didn't happen.

Depends on how you define “damage.” It’s been a minute, ffs!

He survived and thus looks stronger to me. The point was always the spectacle/information coming out moving some people. I don't see that happening at all? (Seems that no amount of new information will make the Senate or the Supreme Court act differently, thus no leverage there).
