The Trump-DeSantis Showdown Is Here - Opinion: Free Expression - WSJ Podcasts

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : He's supported this Florida legislation for a six-week limit on abortion, having initially backed a 15-week limit.
45% : It was one of the main things that evangelical voters were very focused on, walked away from the pro-life line kind of at your peril, and that has shifted a bit, where now, I see in my polling among social and cultural conservatives, much more energy around things like pushing back against race and gender ideology, and those sorts of issues have taken the place of abortion as the top, most animating force, and so Trump is, I think, gambling that actually, he can diverge from the strong pro-life line and actually not be penalized for it because he will still talk a lot about things like gender issues, race issues, et cetera, and be able to capture energy in that way.
40% : I mean, the usual combination of mocking the usual nicknames, Ron DeSanctimonious, as we've talked a little bit about, attacking some of his political positions, maybe especially over abortion.
39% : Was it abortion, a mixture of the two?
32% : The issue of abortion used to be the, A, number one issue when it came to "The social and cultural issues" on the right.
10% : Is there a political lane that he's trying to get in, maybe to Trump's right on things like abortion and maybe some other issues too, or is he going to take on Trump simply on the basis of Trump's supposed unelectability?
