AP-NORC Poll Finds Immigration Remains Trump’s Strongest Issue Among Republicans

AP-NORC Poll Finds Immigration Remains Trump’s Strongest Issue Among RepublicansPreviousNext

A recent AP-NORC poll shows that immigration remains US President Donald Trump's strongest political issue, especially among Republicans, despite a decline in overall approval to 39%. While about half of Americans believe Trump has gone too far in deporting undocumented immigrants and restricting legal immigration, Republican support remains high, with roughly 8 in 10 approving his immigration policies. Trump's handling of immigration outperforms his ratings on the economy and Iran, even amid enforcement controversies and related deaths.
