Mark Penn, co-director of the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll, reviewed the results of their August survey with Tom Bevan on Thursday's edition of the RealClearPolitics podcast.
"Trump’s ratings stabilized this month," Penn said. "And I think he began to get traction on crime. He’s now shifted focus from immigration to tariffs, and now to leading a national crackdown on crime, and you’re seeing a generally favorable response to it."
"Fifty-four percent approve of the president’s approach, using the National Guard in D.C.," Penn explained. "That's interesting. Any time I apply the word 'Trump,' it’s very hard to get above 50%.

Not going to find too many people who are pro crime (besides criminals)
A counterweight to inflation.
...and Democrats.
Trump Gaining Traction With Voters on Crime Issue.
Democrats base hit hardest.
Black Lives Don’t Matter Anymore to Democrats.
“Trump’s ratings stabilized this month,”
Translation: Our poll BS is getting even harder to shovel.
“...Not going to find too many people who are pro crime...”
True. Most sane people anyway.
However, our domestic communist party seems to support it wholeheartedly. Spit.
“””Harvard/Harris Poll Shows Trump Gaining Traction With Voters on Crime Issue””””
And now Trump is adding Voter ID as his latest 80/20 issue.
Democrats are in a hole and still digging.
“”””Not going to find too many people who are pro crime (besides criminals)””””——AND DEMOCRATS!!!!
