Majority of Americans say Trump should be criminally charged for role in Capitol riot
By Stephanie Raymond
A majority of Americans think that former President Donald Trump should be criminally charged for his role in the January 6 riot at the Capitol.
According to a new Ipsos/ABC News poll, 58% of those surveyed believe that Trump "should be charged with a crime" for the events of January 6. That's up from 52% of respondents who said Trump should be charged back in April.
The poll also found that 58% "believe that Trump bears a good or great amount of responsibility" for the attack. The figure is unchanged from a similar poll back in December.
Partisanship appears to be the largest driver behind these sentiments, with almost all Democrats believing Trump is responsible versus fewer than a quarter of Republicans, according to the poll.
The latest survey comes as the January 6 House committee continues to hold its public hearings investigating the Capitol riot.
