Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : What kind of economy does President Trump want to transition the United States to?
48% : It's been interesting to hear some CEOs even come out and say they could handle higher tariffs if Trump would just keep it consistent for a year or so.
47% : One question is whether voters will connect the dots between the actions Trump is taking and those potential outcomes.
46% : Trump and his team have set that date up as the big day for more tariffs on potentially every trading partner we have.
41% : Catherine: If Trump wanted lower rates, the best thing he could have done on economic policy upon coming into office would have been ... nothing at all.
40% : But none of them have been able to articulate how trying to move us to autarky is going to be good for Americans.
37% : But I think Trump genuinely doesn't know what he wants.
33% : Trump was asked this weekend on Fox News if he thinks a recession will happen this year.
31% : Heather: Do we think Trump will keep tariffs in place and keep forging ahead with DOGE if his poll numbers tank?
31% : In his Fox News interview, Trump suggested that the uncertainty and volatility the business community is complaining about is a "sound bite."
19% : The bigger issue is that Trump and his underlings don't seem to realize or acknowledge that everything they're doing is raising recession risk.
