Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Although Congress set up the system of independent regulatory agencies a century ago, the court this year has allowed Trump to fire agency commissioners at will, the only exception, so far, being the Federal Reserve Board of governors.
50% : Since Trump took office for a second term, the conservative court's 6-to-3 majority has been rocking the boat big time.
50% : Although Trump didn't try to fire independent agency officers in his first term, his second term began with his firing Democratic commissioners before their fixed terms were over, and late last month, the justices said they would hear a test case involving the firing of a Federal Trade Commissioner.
50% : The court will also hear a variety of other important cases, including whether Trump exceeded his statutory authority in imposing huge tariffs.
47% : Ultimately, says William Baude, a law professor at the University of Chicago Law School, the question is whether the court "can convince the country that it would be exercising its discretion the same way if it were Joe Biden or Kamala Harris doing things that are the legal equivalent" of what Trump is doing now.
39% : The opinion prompted a slew of lower court judges from across the ideological spectrum to respond with public critiques of the Supreme Court's behavior.
