| 0:00.0 | so what do you think about the indictment against Donald Trump? Well, Americans are growing |
| 0:06.5 | even more divided over whether the charges against him are anything serious. This is according |
| 0:11.3 | to a new ABC poll. The poll was released on Sunday, and it shows when you compare the poll to |
| 0:18.6 | last week, the percentage of people who believe the charges against Trump are very serious jumped |
| 0:24.8 | up by six points, nearly half of Americans, 47% believe that the charges against him are politically |
