Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : And, in Florida, Trump is comfortably up by nine after winning that state in the last two cycles.
59% : Well, if President Trump were to win again, what could he do differently in a second term that would give him a stronger legacy?
55% : Or it's state funding.
53% : By almost 3-1, voters say President Trump would be better for their finances than President Biden.
51% : But if they're not educating our children well, and they're layering the next generation down in mountains of student debt, then they're not meeting their end of the bargain.
49% : In Arizona, Trump has a 10-point advantage on the specific question of, who cares about people like you a lot?
47% : A new CBS poll shows the president trailing Trump by five points in Arizona, despite Biden winning that state in 2020.
47% : The answer is no, which is another reason why Donald Trump would make a much better president.
45% : So I think we need to help Donald Trump get across the finish line.
45% : But now that he sees that Donald Trump is... MARGARET BRENNAN:
43% : You were in Ohio alongside Donald Trump at a fund-raiser.
43% : And yet Donald Trump said, don't vote for it because it's going to be a political win for Biden.
41% : I'm certainly interested in helping him in other ways, if that's what - what matters, because, look, Margaret, we have to reelect Donald Trump as president.
39% : I actually don't care that much who the vice president is, because Trump's ultimately going to govern.
39% : Well, look, Margaret, I think that, first of all, we have to acknowledge that political reality is, I think, really motivating a lot of these considerations. What Donald Trump has said, which is very consistent with what I said during my own campaign, is that the gross majority of abortion policy is going to be made at the state level.
37% : But President Trump has adopted this position that it should be states that control abortion access.
36% : It's interesting you make that point about paper because on the campaign trail Donald Trump claims 2020 was rigged, claims 2024 might be as well.
33% : And that's one of the things, one of the reasons why I think that we need a second term of President Trump, is, this stuff is not going to happen overnight.
28% : Well, look, I'm not going to speak for Donald Trump, but I certainly agree that we need to apply some broad-based tariffs, especially on goods coming in from China, and not just solar panels and E.V. stuff.
28% : And Donald Trump tanked that effort.
25% : Should it be taken off the table by both Biden and Trump? ROBERT GATES: I think the notion of deploying NATO troops into Ukraine causes a lot of domestic concern, not just in this - in the United States, but in Europe as well.
10% : But that is what's happening down-ballot, but President Biden in the state of Arizona is down five points versus Donald Trump.
