The same percentage then doubts that Trump defends free and fair elections, with 43% instead arguing that the president is committed. Finally, the poll finds that 58% of Americans think the president has gone too far in attacking political opponents, and finally two-thirds of respondents believe he has gone too far in expanding the powers of the president.
