Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : The open letter, signed by more than 1,000 West Point alumni, was addressed to the graduating class of 2020 before Trump delivered the commencement address here.
48% : "Biden's speech came just months before voters head to the polls to decide whether to grant him a second term or return Trump to office.
32% : In 2020, Trump walked slowly and unsteadily down a ramp at West Point and appeared to have trouble raising a glass of water during the ceremony.
16% : In his 22-minute commencement address, Biden did not mention Trump by name, but he made clear that he was referring to his Republican opponent by pointing to a letter that was a clear reprimand of Trump's leadership.
14% : Public surveys show the two men are locked in a closely contested rematch, and Biden has cast Trump as an existential threat to democracy who would undermine American institutions, including the military, and alliances abroad.
