Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : Other than Whitaker, Trump also selected former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to be his U.S. ambassador to Israel and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
52% : A former acting attorney general during his first term in office, Whitaker will also "strengthen relationships with our NATO allies, and stand firm in the face of threats to peace and stability," Trump said.
44% : All three roles require confirmation in the Senate unless Trump opts to use recess appointments.
34% : However, Trump last week named former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to be his attorney general, although some Republican senators have signaled in media interviews that Gaetz's nomination may turn into a protracted, uphill battle for Trump to get him nominated.
30% : Since leaving office, Whitaker has frequently appeared on Fox News, giving his opinions on the many of legal issues Trump had faced since he left the White House in early 2021.
