Most Americans say Trump has gone too far on US immigration: Poll
That’s a slight decline from the beginning of Trump’s second term, when about 9 in 10 Republicans approved, but his support on the issue within his base has been mostly stable.Republicans are also more likely to approve of how Trump is handling immigration than the economy or Iran. In just the past month, Republican approval of Trump’s handling of the US and Israel’s war on Iran dropped slightly in AP-NORC polling.Overall, Trump’s popularity has fallen since he took office last year. But the new findings highlight the relatively muted impact of the past year’s aggressive immigration enforcement on his public standing.
