Contributing sentiments towards policy:

68% : In his speech to a Joint Session of Congress Tuesday night, President Trump took a victory lap for doing just that.
67% : The most powerful person in the world (that's Trump) has given the richest person in the world (that's Musk) the keys to the federal government, including access to the computer records of workers employed, payments made, contracts struck.
62% : Musk got a standing ovation - from the Republican side of the aisle, that is - when Trump acknowledged him, seated in the gallery.
59% : "He's working very hard," Trump said as Musk stood and gave him a salute.
53% : "We have accomplished more in 43 days than most administrations accomplish in four years or eight years," Trump declared to Republican cheers, "and we are just getting started!" Before his inauguration, his strategists signaled that the returning president planned to overwhelm Washington with so many executive actions, so many pivots on policy that the nation would be fundamentally changed and his opposition thoroughly flummoxed before they had figured out how to respond.
50% : Don't we feel better?" But Trump was newly embattled as he climbed the steps to the dais of the House of Representatives, as so many of his predecessors have done before to report on the state of the union and to outline his agenda for the year.
40% : And he said he had survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Penn., during last year's campaign for a reason.
37% : Trump gave not a hint of doubt about his course he has set, though.
34% : But Democrats so far have failed to find a way to effectively resist what Trump called his "swift and unrelenting action," and their deliberate, disapproving silence risked underscoring their lack of louder tools to resist.
15% : Texas Rep. Al Green was rescorted out by the Sergeant at Arms after he refused to stop heckling Trump.
11% : Trump mocked them.
9% : Trump credited Musk's team at the Department of Government Efficiency with saving "hundreds of billions of dollars" by identifying fraudulent and wasteful spending.
