- tariffs: ongoing trade war; at least 50% of Americans want tariffs on China reduced so American products from China can come down in price;
- southern surge: at least 50% of Americans feel strong-arming terrorists from Venezuela, Colombia, Iran, Russia, is not giving them due process and it's just not "American."
