so you know, there's this great pew research center question, should colleges account for race in admissions to increase diversity. only 33% of americans the clear plurality, 50% disapprove. again, i'll note that no opinion number, 16%, is rather large. so you know, these are issues that i don't think people are necessarily thinking about every day. so i think depending on which poll question you look at and also with it now more in the news, i wouldn't be surprised if those poll numbers move at least a little bit. >> and how does all of this polling compare to what we saw before roe was overturned last year? i mean, that was the last really big blockbuster opinion. >> reporter: yeah. this is just -- these two issues are in completely different ballpark than roe v. wade getting overturned. if you look back at the polling just before roe was overturned, only 27% of americans believed it should be overturned. 63% said let it stand. and that polling was seen over and over and over again. and you saw that in the polling after roe v. wade was overturned, as well. i think that the issue of affirmative action, student loan forgiveness, are no

polling from pew research shows that gun violence is widely viewed as a major and growing national problem. we know that "axios" did separate polling that tells us that a growing number of americansnk gun violence is a top public health concern. we have no issue at all as far as people wanting this to be done. we need to look at the politicians and folks that are getting in the way of what american people want, which is safe communities and for them to do their job and pass common sense gun safety laws in this country. >> and donnell, i want to ask you just about what it's like for the aftermath for a community that goes through an awful shooting, let's go back to the one that took place in el paso, texas, at that walmart in 2019. 22 people killed in that particular incident. the suspect in that case who's been accused of it, will be in court for sentencing. the former mayor of el paso is actually planning a trip to the federal courtroom so he can see the sentencing for himself. what does the end of the justice process do for a community like this that's been torn apart by such a horrific crime? >> i worked forensics for about a dozen years, and it really marks the beginning of t

take a look at a recent poll by pew research asking this question about government efforts to control the border. americans remain critical of the job they are doing purely -- they are doing. nearly half of americans rate illegal immigration as a very big problem and 23% say the government is doing a good job with the large number of people seeking asylum at the border while more than three times 73% say it's doing a bad job. the public's views of possible actions to deal with the situation have not changed much. about half, 52%, say it's important to require people seeking asylum in the u.s. to apply before they travel to the border and 49% say it's important to increase staffing and resources for patrolling and policing the border. how does this breakdown by party? p research did that as well. americans have expressed negative views of the government's handling of the border situation for the past years. only 29% give the government a positive rating in april of 2021, during joe biden's first year in office, and in 2019, just one third said the government was doing a good job at the border. both surveys

you know, there was a pew research center study in 2015 that showed that three-quarters of americansfficials are using their position to advance their own self-interest, not ours. this was in 2015, they described their elected officials as being quote, unquote, selfish. one year later, donald trump runs for president. he was allegedly a billionaire, but he did a good job of talking about how the game was rigged, the swamp needed to be drained, and i think there was a reason why that resonated. >> matt, sounds like a lot of your concern here is how politicians are using their job to get richer. do you have any solutions you propose in the book? are you suggesting people should not be able to trade stock in they're in congress, which a lot are supporting? are there other policy proposals you think would help solve this? >> absolutely. so that is the first one, right? since 2012, it's been illegal to engage in insider trading in congress, but it's impossible to police. there are a lot of examples i could cite that look very swampy, very sketchy. one of the things i propose is simply to
