New Polls Reinforce Support for Trump’s Immigration Agenda, Undercutting Democratic Criticism
Democrats claimed President Trump’s return to office was marred by poor approval ratings and voter regret. However, recent polling tells a different story.
A Marquette University poll showed 66% support for Trump’s handling of illegal immigration, especially after the deportation of a known MS-13 gang member. A separate Quantus poll placed his overall approval at 48%.
The Department of Homeland Security also launched a voluntary self-deportation program offering stipends and travel assistance, which could reduce costs significantly.
Critics argue the move rewards illegal presence, but officials maintain it saves taxpayer money and supports legal reentry. Polls suggest many voters agree with this approach.
