35% : Ty Cobb, a former White House lawyer to Trump and a signatory of the letter warning about the rules, told Salon that "I worry that nothing will be done," despite the push to challenge these rules.
28% : Painter indicated that he thought the detente between Kemp and Trump would last through Election Day, a reading of the situation shared by Stuart Gerson, an assistant attorney general who served under former President George H.W. Bush.
