Fox News Poll: 4 in 10 think both Donald Trump & Hunter Biden broke the law

As Hunter Biden and former President Donald Trump continue to face Congressional investigations and legal challenges, large minorities of voters think each did something illegal.

That’s according to the latest Fox News survey, released Wednesday.

When it comes to his business dealings in Ukraine and China, 43% think Hunter Biden did something illegal. That’s up from 37% who felt that way in February.

Independents (up 12 percentage points since February), voters age 65+ (+12), liberals (+9), women (+8), and Democrats (+7) are all more likely to think he did something unlawful.

Overall, a third of voters think Hunter Biden (33%) did something unethical but not illegal, while one in five (19%) say he hasn’t done anything seriously wrong.

On President Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s business dealings, 36% say he did something illegal, 28% say unethical but not illegal, while 31% think he didn’t do anything wrong. That’s unchanged from how voters felt about the situation in December.
