Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : Robert Wyshynski Damage control Pearl River, N.Y.: To Voicer Lisa Meyer: Instead of blaming Trump administration initiatives with stopping the Green New Deal scam, if the states would put more effort into forest management, we would not have these massive fires.
46% : In his 2012 speech to the UN regarding the Arms Trade Treaty, Wayne LaPierre, National Rifle Association executive vice president and CEO, stated: "When you ignore the right of good people to own firearms to protect their freedom, you become the enablers of future tyrants whose regimes will destroy millions and millions of defenseless lives."
43% : If you had been paying attention before the 2024 presidential election, you would know that someone beat you to the punch with that observation when she said of Trump and Russia, "He's getting played by these guys."
41% : Trump (a businessman) is the first president to face financial reality, and he is trying to do things to minimize our debts.
32% : Trump is still not judge, jury or God.
19% : Trump proclaimed, "I am your retribution."
18% : Then why is the NRA and its current President Bob Barr enabling tyranny by sitting by silently while Trump and his Heritage Foundation puppet masters impose it by replacing nonpartisan civil servants and civilian and military officers with Trump loyalists, dragging both citizens and noncitizens off the streets and sending them to prisons without due process, impounding expenditures of funds appropriated by Congress, directing retribution against opponents, erasing contributions of non-whites from official government history, and threatening to defund colleges, universities and public schools that won't cave to his demands?
