Americans back Trump’s immigration agenda.
CNN senior data analyst Harry Enten threw cold water on the Democrat narrative that Americans don’t support President Donald Trump’s deportations and immigration agenda.
Enten broke down recent polling, showing immigration is one of Trump’s strongest issues.
“Look at Trump’s net approval rating on immigration. Compare where we are now. Compare where we were at this point in his first term,” Enten said. “In his first term, he was underwater at minus 12 points. Look at where he is today. He’s actually above water. This is one of his strongest issues at plus one points.”
“And more than that, on the net approval, the net approval for him on this issue has stayed steady in the positive,” he continued. “This is an area where Donald Trump wants to focus. Because the bottom line is this is an area in which the American people, at least the bare majority of them, seem to like what he’s doing.”
Enten then noted the stark contrast between Americans’ views of Joe Biden’s handling of immigration compared to Trump’s in his second term so far, citing Reuters/Ipsos polling.
“What track are we on, the right track or the wrong track? Look in December, look at the percentage who said we were on the wrong track: 62% of Americans when Joe Biden was in office, compared to just 14% who said that we were on the right track,” Enten said. “Flash forward to April. Well, hello, 45% say we’re on the right track, compared to 42% who say we’re on the wrong track.”
“So in a big switcharoo from where we were back in January, the plurality of Americans say that the country is on the right track when it comes to immigration policy,” he added. “Back in December, when Joe Biden was president, the vast majority said that we were on the wrong track. Again, this points out that on the whole, Americans like where we’re going on immigration policy under Donald Trump, which is very different from where we were under Joe Biden.”
