Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : In 2024, Trump and the GOP more broadly gave a name to this group -- "the forgotten men and women of America" -- while seeking to expand it, going after disaffected young men and non-college-educated Black and Latino voters.
38% : In 2016, Trump stoked decades-long anxieties among the white working class about cultural abandonment, coastal elitism and demographic overhaul -- and was aided by Hillary Clinton's "basket of deplorables" comments, which added evidence to his theory of the case.
38% : But nationally, the economy and immigration -- two strengths for Trump -- came out on top when it came to getting voters to the polls, followed by abortion, Democrats' strongest issue.
34% : " Exit polling showed that democracy was a top motivator for voters -- though that didn't just help Harris, since Trump has long cast the Democratic party as part of an antidemocratic "deep state."

27% : "If we don't, Trump and the Republicans are going to cement a coalition that it's going to be very hard to defeat.
