Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Trump announced Warrington's appointment in a social media post Wednesday, saying the lawyer "has represented me well" as his personal attorney and as the attorney for his campaign.
42% : Bondi marks one of the less controversial picks Trump has made, by contrast, with her lengthy record as a prosecutor earning her widespread praise among Republicans.
40% : Trump did not explain his decision to name Warrington to replace McGinley, who will now serve as counsel for Elon Musk's new "Department of Government Efficiency."
35% : That's how much Trump has paid Blanche and Bove's law firm Blanche Law and Sauer and Scharf's firm James Otis Law Group as of Oct. 16, based on federal filings by Trump's Save America PAC, which handles his legal bills.
30% : An appeals court ruled against Trump after Sauer argued on immunity there, however, and the attorney made waves during both court appearances when he suggested former presidents should be immune from prosecution even if they assassinate political rivals.
28% : Blanche was praised during his cross-examination of ex-Trump attorney Michael Cohen for seemingly catching Cohen off-guard by showing evidence suggesting a call Cohen claimed to have with Trump about the hush money payment in question may have actually been about a totally separate matter, as texts suggested Cohen was actually calling Trump's bodyguard to discuss him being pranked by a 14-year-old.
28% : Trump has started naming a slew of officials to top roles in his administration after winning the election, including controversial picks like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be health secretary, Fox News host Pete Hegseth to lead the Department of Defense and former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard to be the director of national intelligence.
25% : Trump rewarded his personal attorneys as his legal issues have fallen by the wayside in the wake of his electoral win -- at least in his criminal cases -- with his two federal cases formally dismissed.
23% : The lawyer was also chastised by Judge Juan Merchan when he was trying to argue Trump didn't violate the gag order against him, with Merchan telling Blanche he was "losing all credibility with the court."
22% : The other two federal cases against Trump that Blanche and Bove are involved with are expected to end without going to trial before Trump takes office.
17% : Blanche was the key lawyer representing Trump in his hush money trial earlier this year, with the attorney getting a mixed reception even as the jury ultimately declared Trump guilty.
16% : Trump's imminent presidency will not get him out of his civil cases, however, and the president-elect's appeals of rulings against him in Carroll's two defamation cases and the civil fraud trial against Trump and his associates will continue.
15% : Trump's criminal charges in Georgia for trying to overturn the 2020 election are also likely to be paused until he leaves office, and while Trump has already been convicted in the Manhattan case, he's successfully managed to postpone his sentencing indefinitely.
14% : While Trump was impeached by the House for his Ukraine dealings, he was ultimately acquitted by the Senate, after Bondi argued on Trump's behalf on the Senate floor.
10% : Blanche was a registered Democrat before representing Trump, according to The New York Times -- he's since registered as a Republican -- and the Financial Times reports he "shed a tear" when Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election to Trump.
