Contributing sentiments towards policy:

39% : The Biden administration might have been a little fuzzy on the details, but they knew what Smith would do: He'd go after Trump and get him on anything he could.
31% : So, this is further evidence that Trump is indeed being prosecuted for his politics, not based on his conduct, especially in the cases brought by the federal government.
29% : (For the record, we haven't heard of Trump threatening to fire and replace every civil servant.
29% : As we point out regularly, the First Amendment protects citizens against political or viewpoint discrimination and so if Trump could prove his prosecution is political, the courts could stop it for that reason.
24% : So, all these complaints that Trump will lock up political opponents?
19% : We don't believe Trump can completely abolish the Department of Education or replace all civil servants without congressional authorization (but we haven't looked into it), but if Trump tries to do either of those things illegally, the solution is for any aggrieved parties to sue in civil court.
12% : And if Biden is trying, in his diminished capacity, to say Trump believes he can kill people who pose a political danger to him, that's simply not supported by any evidence.
9% : First off, he complains about the horrors Donald Trump might engage in, namely that Trump is talking about getting rid of the Department of Education, replacing every civil servant and then, Biden says Trump "thinks he has a right under the Supreme Court ruling on immunity to be able to, if need be," more or less kill a person "he believes to be a threat to him.
9% : And then Biden attempts to pretend that his comment about locking Trump up is metaphorical -- not talking about prosecution.
8% : As for the killing part, we quoted a great deal of Biden's words on the killing part because taken literally, Biden is accusing Trump of believing he could kill a man, if necessary, in self-defense.
