Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : Mr. Ramaphosa said the speeches heard in the videos are "not government policy.
54% : "The video was definitely a mic drop moment for Trump.
52% : "I haven't made up my mind," he said.
49% : It is unprecedented to be showing footage like that in that setting," said Elaine Dezenski, senior director and head of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies' Center for Economic and Financial Power.
44% : We will not agree to compromise our political principles on land expropriation without compensation for political expediency.
43% : The government has said any claims of persecution against White Afrikaners are "completely false." "The South African Police Services statistics on farm-related crimes do not support allegations of violent crime targeted at farmers generally or any particular race," the country's Ministry of International Relations and Cooperation said in a statement.
39% : "I don't know how this is going to play domestically for Ramaphosa because I'm not sure he's coming back with anything concrete, and I think it was difficult for him to formulate a response to the video with the way Trump used it as a cudgel," she said.
19% : President Trump put South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on the spot Wednesday by screening a video of Black leaders calling for White Afrikaner farmers to be killed -- an eyebrow-raising presentation that forced the visiting dignitary to answer for reports of genocide in his country.
