And the glowing reviews came largely from the Republicans (87% very positive) and independents (57% very positive) who tuned in. Democratic speech-watchers largely had negative responses (64% very or somewhat negative).

Wow. We love the idea of peace and working together, but we hate Trump, so fuck it!
