Contributing sentiments towards policy:

82% : "Elise is an incredibly strong, tough, and smart America First fighter," Trump said in a statement Monday announcing his pick for the role -- his first selection that will require Senate confirmation.
70% : Trump has also talked about how he initially wanted to select his eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, for the role after he was elected the first time.
44% : She saw her profile rise after her aggressive questioning of a trio of university presidents over antisemitism on their campuses led to two of their resignations -- a performance Trump repeatedly praised.
43% : Nikki Haley, who challenged Trump for the GOP nomination, was among those who previously held the U.N. ambassador role in his first term.
37% : Trump did not say much about the U.N. during his campaign, but has generally advocated for a less interventionist foreign policy.
