First Read is your briefing from Meet the
Press and the NBC Political Unit on the day's most important political
stories and why they matter.
WASHINGTON — After the tax legislation finally cleared Congress
Wednesday, and with the races of 2017 fully behind us, the biggest
political story in America turns back to the Russia probe.
And according to the new NBC/WSJ poll released this week,
Americans are split on its severity, with 38 percent saying the 2016
Trump campaign DID collude or work secretly with Russia, and with 35
percent saying it didn’t. Another 26 percent say they don’t know enough
to say.
Not surprisingly, there’s a significant
partisan divide to these numbers. Sixty-five percent of Democrats in
poll say the Trump campaign colluded, versus just 6 percent of
Republicans who agree. Independents are pretty much split down the
middle, with 38 percent saying the Trump campaign DID NOT collude,
compared with 35 percent who say it did.
