Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : So when Biden announced he was exiting the race and throwing his support to Harris less than a month later, Trump called it a victory brought on by what he described as a dominating debate performance -- "the greatest in history.
49% : "The new mantra is 'let Trump be Trump,' but we've seen where that leads," they said.
45% : "And on the heels of the unsuccessful assassination attempt against him just weeks before the Republican National Convention kicked off in Wisconsin, Trump and his entourage were riding high when Biden shifted the goal posts by releasing a letter informing Americans that he was standing down -- and moments later endorsing Harris as the Democratic standard-bearer.
34% : Either way, Trump doesn't seem to be changing his course or focusing on policy.
29% : 'I think you have to criticize, though," Trump said.
22% : Even as polls have continued to show him leading Harris when it comes to who voters trust more on a number of key issues -- the economy, immigration, and others -- Trump has utterly failed to stick to attacking her on policy grounds.
20% : Instead, Trump has been reduced to spouting insane conspiracy theories -- including that immigrants in an Ohio town have been eating the pets of residents.
18% : "Trump had benefited from the rapid decline of President Joe Biden.
10% : The unhinged exchange took place in the first third of the 90-minute debate, with Trump, already off-kilter after Harris mocked the sizes of crowds at his signature rallies, shouting: "In Springfield, they're eating dogs -- they're eating the cats.
6% : "One former campaign operative who is still active in Republican politics told The Independent as the debate was wrapping that Trump was "kicking [Harris's] ass" and compared her to Pam Grier, the uber-cool star of 70's Black cinema, while also comparing Trump to Archie Bunker, the racist, elderly lead character in Normal Lear's All in the Family sitcom.
