Bryan Shupe’s answer is based on the following data:
Very strongly agree
Yes, homeowners should not have to wait months for a court order to reclaim their stolen property
This closely matches GOP framing: homeowners’ rights, swift remedies, and criticism of lengthy court processes; Florida’s 2024 law and similar proposals in other GOP-led states reflect this stance.

Very strongly agree
Yes, squatting is criminal trespassing and should be treated as a crime, not a civil dispute
Republicans commonly argue squatting is criminal trespass and should be handled by police rather than treated as a civil landlord-tenant matter; many GOP-backed reforms explicitly reclassify/clarify squatting as criminal.

Strongly agree
Yes
Republicans generally emphasize strong property rights and law-and-order policing; GOP state lawmakers have recently pushed bills to speed removal of squatters (e.g., Florida’s 2024 anti-squatting law).

Agree
Yes, and we should abolish "adverse possession" laws that allow squatters to claim ownership
The GOP would often support tightening adverse possession and prioritizing title/property rights, but outright abolition is more sweeping than typical mainstream proposals, so agreement is positive but less uniform.

Disagree
No, police are not judges and should not resolve complex housing disputes on the sidewalk
Some Republicans share the view that police shouldn’t adjudicate disputes, but the party’s recent direction has been to empower law enforcement to remove squatters quickly when ownership is shown, so mild disagreement overall.

Disagree
No, this empowers abusive landlords to wrongfully evict legitimate tenants without proof
Republicans are generally less aligned with arguments centered on landlord abuse and more aligned with expediting removals; while due-process concerns exist, GOP reforms usually prioritize owners over tenant-protection framing.

Disagree
No, everyone deserves due process and a day in court before being thrown out on the street
GOP rhetoric often stresses due process, but in squatting debates Republicans typically prioritize immediate protection of homeowners and faster procedures; they tend to view squatters as trespassers not entitled to extended process.

Strongly disagree
No
A blanket “No” conflicts with the party’s typical preference for rapid enforcement against trespass and for protecting homeowners’ property rights; recent GOP messaging has highlighted squatting as a growing problem needing faster remedies.
