The Spin

This poll shows Americans are rejecting Trump's extreme immigration agenda by a staggering 62%. It's not even Democrats swaying the numbers, as less than half of Republicans support reducing immigration, and 64% view immigration positively. Effectively, every immigration talking point Trump ran on is being rejected, and Trump has no constituency to cling to.

Americans voted for Trump's tough immigration stance and still support it despite media and political spin. Trump's deportations to third countries align with immigration law, backed by Congress and the Supreme Court. No matter how loudly liberals scream about "unfairness," they won't erase the mandate to secure the border and enforce the law.

National Review X

Both parties are complicit in enabling Trump's harsh deportation regime through a budget bill that hides a $70 billion ICE expansion amid social welfare cuts. This unprecedented funding empowers private contractors to profit from mass detention and deportations, targeting long-term, law-abiding immigrants, undermining American values, and threatening economic stability.
