50% : The visit, the first by Trump and the first by any president in a decade, brought him into the belly of an institution he has disparaged in searing terms for years but one that he has sought to reshape by installing loyalists and members of his personal defense team in top leadership positions.
45% : Arriving for a second term in January fresh off a landmark Supreme Court opinion that reaffirmed a president's unshakable control of the Justice Department, Trump has appeared determined to clear from his path any potential obstacles, including by appointing Bondi -- a former Florida attorney general who was part of Trump's defense team at his first impeachment trial -- and Kash Patel, another close ally, to serve as his FBI director.
40% : "We all adore Donald Trump, and we want to protect him and fight for his agenda.

5% : At her January confirmation hearing, Bondi appeared to endorse Trump's false claims of mass voter fraud in 2020 by refusing to answer directly whether Trump had lost to Biden.
