Contributing sentiments towards policy:

75% : Trump said on social media the upper part of his right ear was pierced in the shooting, but advisers said he was in "great spirits" ahead of his arrival Sunday in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention.
42% : The officer retreated down the ladder, and Crooks quickly took a shot toward Trump, and that's when Secret Service snipers shot him, according to two officials who spoke to AP on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.
27% : Investigators have found no threatening comments on social media accounts or ideological positions that could help explain what led him to target Trump before Secret Service rushed the presumptive Republican presidential nominee off the stage, his face smeared with blood.
