The charts above are from the ABC News / Ipsos Poll -- done on September 2nd and 3rd of a national sample of 709 adults, with a 4 point margin of error.
Lately, Donald Trump has used a "law and order" theme for his campaign. He has demonized the Black Lives matters protesters and tried to paint a picture of a lawless society if Joe Biden is elected. It's not working.
Most Americans don't want a divided country. They want a united country where equality and justice is given to all. About 55% see Trump hateful rhetoric as making the situation worse, while only 13% say it's making it better (top chart).
And the respondents clearly thought the candidate that could make things better was Joe Biden (bottom chart).
