Memorial to victims of gun violence taken down at ATF headquarters The β€œFaces of Gun Violence” memorial was installed at ATF in 2024 to remind the workforce of the human toll.

Never once heard a FG participant say they wish we'd spend less time remembering kids killed by gun violence.

From @theatlantic.com @elainegodfrey.bsky.social. In early April NYT fg, no Trump vtr would change their vote. In our late April fgs & survey, more (not all!) shared regret. Trump voters shifting? Or diff btwn β€œregret” & β€œwould change vote”? We’ll keep exploring. Majority of Trump vtrs still w/him.

in 2016 there were few signs of Trump regret (like brexit). but the honeymoon + crash this time around are quite different.

How many Trump voters regret their choice? I would have guessed less than 11%, but it's consistent with what we're hearing in focus groups. From the latest @navigatorsurvey.bsky.social release:

Trump is preparing to make JD Vance the β€œtariff czar” to deal with the rising prices and other problems that are about to arise because of their tariffs on China.

From our latest @nytopinion.nytimes.com focus group, this time with Trump voters. They give him mostly Bs & Cs, and are at times both worried and optimistic about tariffs, hoping to pay no more than 3-5% more in prices. No one would go back & change their vote.
