Contributing sentiments towards policy:

97% : In naming Waltz, Trump announced Tuesday, "Mike has been a strong champion of my America First Foreign Policy agenda, and will be a tremendous champion of our pursuit of Peace through Strength!" Trump has yet to formally name Rubio, but his pending appointments has been widely reported and the Republican Jewish Coalition, which has a longstanding relationship with Rubio, congratulated him.
75% : Reports Monday said Trump planned to name two Floridian allies to top jobs: Sen. Marco Rubio will be tapped to be secretary of state, and Rep. Michael Waltz will be his national security adviser.
46% : That stance echoes Trump who, before the election, urged Israel to "Do what you have to do."
37% : Rubio chose not to run for president this year and was wholly behind Trump.
30% : Then Trump pulled ahead of the pack and Sheldon Adelson decided to endorse the reality TV star.
21% : Trump says neither will join his administration.
7% : Trump had criticized President Joe Biden for confining Israel to only hitting military sites, but not nuclear ones, in a retaliatory strike.
