[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a CBS News/YouGov poll conducted June 4-6, 54% of Americans said they approved of Trump's deporation policy, and 50% approved of how he's handling immigration[/quote]

You're leaving out most of the other findings related to Trump's immigration policy that were part of the same poll:

*A slight majority feel the administration's deportation efforts are prioritizing people they believe are dangerous criminals. Those who say this are very supportive of the program, and feel the program is making people in the U.S. safer. But if people don't think it is dangerous criminals who are the focus of the deportation effort, support drops dramatically.

*In terms of how many people the administration is trying to deport, more is not necessarily better in the public mind.

*Half of Americans say Trump is deporting more people than they thought he would during the 2024 campaign. And most in this group disapprove of the deportation program.

*On that topic of process, big percentages of Americans continue to say it is not acceptable if legal residents are mistakenly deported as part of the program.

*Unlike the net-positive views about safety, more Americans think the deportation program will weaken than strengthen the economy.

*A larger share of Americans say immigrants generally fill jobs Americans won't do.

*Trump's approval rating on immigration continues to be higher than his marks on the economy and inflation. As has typically been the case in his second term, he gets his highest specific ratings from Republicans on immigration. His overall job approval remains unchanged (55% disapproval).
