Contributing sentiments towards policy:

34% : He used the word "gun" only once -- to hail Hulk Hogan, the former wrestler who endorsed the former president, as "one strong son of a gun."After the Georgia shooting, Trump posted a response on his social media site.
30% : But in an appearance before the National Rifle Association in May, Trump had plenty to say about firearms, including the false and inciting claim that "if the Biden regime gets four more years, they are coming for your guns."
29% : In Trump's Republican National Convention speech in July, Trump talked about crime and criminals only to vilify migrants.
25% : Harris can do what Trump will not -- say explicitly that weapons of war have no business on America's streets; that most domestic violence fatalities are caused by guns; that everyday gun violence is a preventable epidemic; and that in order to strengthen gun reform, Democrats must regain control of the House and hold onto the Senate.
21% : With the first presidential debate days away, they seem reluctant to say anything that can be held against Trump or highlight GOP objections to gun reform.
