NYT Poll: Majority of Americans Approve of Trump’s Deportations, Defying Legacy Media and Dems Portraying Them as Evil
A New York Times poll conducted from Sept. 22-27 found that most Americans back President Donald Trump’s deportation policies.
According to the survey of 1,313 registered voters, 54 percent said they support deporting immigrants living illegally in the United States back to their home countries.
Despite Democrats and legacy media portraying deportations as cruel, public support for them has remained steady.
The Times noted that “a 51 percent majority said the government was mostly deporting people who ‘should be deported.’”
The same report also said, “54 percent of voters said they supported deporting immigrants living in the United States illegally — including nearly 20 percent of Democrats.”
Even the Times admitted, “a slim majority of voters said the Trump administration’s process for deportation had mostly been unfair, and a majority thought Mr. Trump had gone too far on immigration enforcement.”
The survey showed opposition concentrated in key groups.
Women registered 29 percent as “strongly oppose.”
Hispanics came in at 45 percent in strong opposition.
Among non-white college graduates, 31 percent were in the “strongly oppose” category.
