Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : It's almost like they want Trump, sometimes.
55% : For whatever reason, I feel like this happened in 2016, too, and this nice lady predicted all this stuff that happened and the media never believed her and took Trump at his word.
49% : Now this is not a surprise to anyone except, I am sure, Republican voters and the media, because this was pretty explicitly called for in that Project 2025 book that this nice lady from California kept mentioning over and over again and Trump kept saying "Project 2025?
29% : In other news, House Republicans are doing what Trump swore he would never do and are proposing close to a trillion in cuts to medicaid: House Republicans released their proposed budget Sunday night, and it includes $880 million in cuts, largely to Medicaid, to help cover the cost of $4.5 trillion in tax cuts.
23% : In domestic news, I see that Trump has undone some of what he fucked up with China but with leaving long lasting international effects, so I guess that is better than before he fucked things up but not better than if he had just done nothing.
