In a whirling dervish White House press conference, President Trump manhandled the press, piledrived all the fake news and reminded the world why he tore through both political parties and got elected president in the first place.
President Trump's belief that radical Islamic terrorism is a threat to America is one of the primary reasons behind his temporary freeze on refugees and visas. Most voters continue to recognize that threat and believe the United States is still at war with radical Islam.

At first blush, one might think that the Democrats have a decent chance of taking control of the Senate in the 2018 midterm.

President Trump feels strongly that federal government overregulation is hurting the economy and has signed an executive order mandating that every time a government agency adds a regulation, it needs to cut two others. Most Republicans approve; most Democrats don't

Hillary Clinton recently declared that "the future is female," and nearly half of voters - regardless of gender - agree there will be more women leaders in the near future. But younger voters are more convinced of this than their elders.
President Trump has been highly critical of the judges who stopped his temporary refugee and visa ban. While just over half of voters agree with the president that most judges play politics, they still don’t think public criticism of judges by name is a good thing.
