4 takeaways from the new Republican Party platform -- or Trump's playbook

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : The platform even mirrors Trump's typical language and formatting in social media posts, with many capitalized letters, slogans such as "DRILL, BABY, DRILL" and broad promises.Party delegates will vote on the proposed platform at their convention, where they will also formally accept Trump as the Republican nominee for president.
44% : Trump frequently cites the 2022 Supreme Court decision which undid Roe while on the campaign trail.
37% : The platform -- like Trump -- promises to build an Iron Dome missile defense system, like the one Israel has deployed against attacks by the militant group Hamas.
35% : Knowing that stronger abortion restrictions could alienate key constituencies such as suburban women and young people, Trump has sought to carve out a narrow lane for himself -- taking credit for undoing nationwide abortion access but leaving it to the states to decide how far to go.
34% : Trump appointed three conservative justices to the Supreme Court who ruled in the case, Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which essentially gave states decision-making power on abortion.
27% : Still, many on the Republican Party's most conservative flank -- including many evangelical leaders -- have called for Trump and the party to go further, pushing for a federal ban on abortion.
