For the first time, a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll shows that a majority of Americans — 52% — believe Donald Trump “falsified business records to conceal a hush money payment to a porn star” — the charge at the center of his ongoing criminal trial in Manhattan.
This represents a new high — and a significant increase from previous Yahoo News/YouGov polls conducted before courtroom testimony began last month, suggesting that coverage of the trial may be shifting perceptions of Trump’s conduct.
