65% : He feels blessed," one of the people who spoke with Trump after the shooting said.62% : According to a source, major executives in Hollywood and Silicon Valley reached out to Trump over the weekend to express their support.

57% : Trump is aware that there is a huge political opening for him after the shooting, sources said.
54% : "Given recent events, you couldn't fault Trump for wondering if his campaign is benefiting from divine intervention.
51% : On his flight to Milwaukee on Sunday, Trump told journalists from the New York Post and Washington Examiner that he would be rewriting his nomination speech to bring the country together.
49% : He's letting people back in," said one of the people who spoke with Trump over the weekend.
47% : Yet Trump has modulated his behavior before, only to revert to his divisive and demagogic ways.
45% : (After the shooting, Elon Musk and Bill Ackman formally endorsed Trump.)
44% : But the sources who spoke with Trump in private say he truly seems like a different man.
39% : Three sources who have spoken to Trump since the shooting told me they are struggling to recognize his softer tone.
32% : The fundamental question for the election, of course, is whether Trump has actually changed.
31% : "Trump put the word out that he doesn't want any talk of revenge or retaliation in speeches or anywhere else," a Republican close to the campaign said.
30% : According to a source, Trump staffers are worried that Trump could select Nikki Haley as his running mate at the last minute to appeal to moderates; she was added to Tuesday's speaker lineup in the aftermath of the shooting.
27% : Trump also seems aware that the tragedy in Pennsylvania has engendered goodwill among vast swaths of voters--even his critics.
25% : And would Trump, who has spoken ominously of seeking vengeance and retribution if elected, suddenly temper those dark impulses?

Scam, Fake Claims about a woman I never met...and the Georgia 'Perfect' Phone Call charges.")Cannon's decision followed the Supreme Court's stunning ruling granting presidents vast powers of immunity for actions in office.
17% : I threw it out," Trump said.
15% : (Trump has reportedly made his choice, according to the AP, and Marco Rubio has been told he's not it.)
