Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : This phone call echoes the infamous conversation in which Trump pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to find "11,779" votes to overturn Biden's 2020 victory -- the one he's defended as "an absolutely PERFECT phone call."
41% : While we did already know about this call -- the basic facts of it came to light when Palmer testified to the Jan. 6 committee in 2021 -- the details of what exactly Trump and McDaniel said weren't known until now.
30% : Former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb told Politico the phone call shows "the depths to which Trump personally participated in fraudulently pimping the 'Big Lie.'
29% : "The new details raise questions about whether Jack Smith could use this to strengthen his federal election interference case, or whether Trump could face state charges in Michigan, where officials have been conducting their own election interference investigation, similar to what Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis did in Georgia.
26% : In Palmer's testimony to the House Select Committee, she said she didn't remember exactly what Trump told her or if he had mentioned anything about Michigan's election.
22% : Then there's the phone call Trump had with Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, in which he also pressured the governor to claim there had been voter fraud so Arizona's election results could be overturned in his favor.
20% : In the newly published recording, however, Trump claims there were more votes in those counties than people, and that "everybody knows Detroit is crooked as hell."
19% : (Trump now faces 13 state felony charges for allegedly trying to overturn Georgia's election results.)
16% : "Michigan did ultimately send a fake certificate to the National Archives and Congress claiming that Trump won the state's 2020 election -- and 16 Republicans face felony charges for signing on to it.
