A majority of Republicans believe the FBI is conspiring to frame President Trump as part of the special counsel investigation into connections between his campaign and Russia, according to a new poll from YouGov released Wednesday.
Participants were asked, “Do you believe Donald Trump is being framed by the FBI and the Department of Justice?”
The survey found that 61% of Republicans believe he is. Only 17% of Republicans think Trump is not being framed, while 21% are unsure.
Overall, though, only 29% of Americans believe the FBI and Justice Department are conspiring to frame the president.
The poll surveyed 1,500 American adults in early May.
The survey had a margin of error of 3%.
