Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : Trump also told Kennedy that "people like you."
49% : The president-elect referenced Kennedy's unsuccessful 2024 campaign as an independent presidential candidate, claiming that Kennedy was "doing incredibly well" until he "decided he can't do it, went independent, and now he's with us all the way.""And today I nominated him for, I guess, if you like health and you like people that live a long time, it's the most important position," Trump said.
48% : "While campaigning with Kennedy, Trump promised that in his second administration, Kennedy would have carte blanche to "do what he wants" with women's health and that Kennedy could generally "go wild" on health-related matters.
45% : Shortly before Thursday's event at Mar-a-Lago, Trump announced that he had selected three of his personal lawyers to serve in other key Justice Department roles: he picked Todd Blanche as deputy attorney general, D. John Sauer as solicitor general, and Emil Bove as principal associate deputy attorney general.
41% : Sauer, meanwhile, was instrumental in arguing for Trump to get absolute immunity from criminal prosecution before the Supreme Court this year.
35% : Trump nominated Kennedy for Secretary of Health and Human Services earlier in the day, a move that will likely rattle the public health community given Kennedy's long history of pushing anti-vaccine conspiracy theories and promoting medical treatments whose effectiveness has not been sufficiently proven.
27% : Blanche and Bove played crucial roles on Trump's legal team in the Manhattan DA's hush-money case in New York, where Trump was convicted of 34 felonies, as well as the special counsel Jack Smith's classified documents case in Florida, which was dismissed earlier this year.
22% : Kennedy is one of several controversial Cabinet nominees Trump announced this week.
