5 key takeaways from Donald Trump's joint address to Congress

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : President Donald Trump leaned into his base during a speech to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night, portraying the administration's actions -- from renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America to removing the "poison of critical race theory from public schools" -- as part of a "common sense revolution" that is "sweeping the world.
41% : Trump referenced his assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania -- pointing out the family of the man who was killed in the shooting as his guests -- and said that he believes he was saved to "make America great again."
37% : The varied strategy suggests the party remains at a loss on how to react to Trump, Calderon-Martinez said.
30% : Aside from U.S. Rep. Al Green of Texas who was removed from the chamber, Democrats protested Trump mostly through signs, messages on t-shirts and whiteboards, and walkouts.
26% : Trump described the Middle East as a "rough neighborhood," but he did not elaborate on his idea to "take over" Gaza and redevelop it into the "Riviera of the Middle East" -- an idea which has resulted in significant pushback from Middle Eastern allies as well as from aid organizations.
7% : From rising egg prices to hints of a slowing economy, Trump placed any blame squarely on his predecessor Joe Biden repeatedly, calling the prior administration a disaster and referring to the withdrawal from Afghanistan as the lowest moment in American history.
