Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : In an interview with NPR in late November, Schiff said he didn't think a preemptive pardon is a good idea, because "I think the courts are strong enough to withstand" threats made by Trump.
40% : "Trump has made it clear that he is more focused on settling personal scores than on protecting the American people or upholding the rule of law," he said in a statement of Trump's plan to nominate Patel to lead the FBI.
10% : The list includes Dr. Anthony Fauci, who helped coordinate the nation's COVID-19 response and later served as Mr. Biden's top science adviser; retired Gen. Mark A. Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who has called Trump a "fascist" and provided information for several books and news reports detailing the former president's behavior and activities around the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol; California Democratic Senator-elect Adam Schiff, and other Democratic and Republican lawmakers who led the two impeachment cases against Trump or sat on the House committee that reviewed the Jan. 6 attack -- a group that includes former Wyoming Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney, who actively campaigned against Trump this past fall.
