Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : Trump won Michigan's Republican primary on Tuesday, and Biden easily clinched the state's Democratic one.
57% : "I'm going to Walter Reed to get my physical," Biden told reporters as he left the White House, which said it will release a written summary of the routine checkup later in the day.
44% : Trump was 70 when he took office in 2017, which made him the oldest American president to be inaugurated, until Biden broke his record by being inaugurated at 78 in 2021.
38% : Trump has had his own share of verbal miscues, mixing up the city and state where he was campaigning, calling Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban the leader of Turkey and repeatedly mispronouncing the militant group Hamas as "hummus."
28% : Polls have shown similar reluctance about Trump too, however, and that hasn't stopped either from closing in on their party's nominations.
23% : Biden joked that his age was classified information and suggested during a taping in New York on Monday of "Late Night With Seth Meyers" that Trump mistakenly called his wife Melania, "Mercedes" during a weekend speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference -- though the Trump campaign says he was referring to political commentator Mercedes Schlapp.
21% : Biden has suggested that his advanced age brings wisdom, and he has begun to criticize Trump for the former president's recent public gaffes.
9% : That was the margin by which Trump won Michigan in 2016 and the goal set by organizers -- a potential source of embarrassment for Biden's reelection campaign.
