Time: Most Americans Don't Approve of Trump's Immigration Policies, Poll Finds

By ALANA ABRAMSON July 6, 2018
More Americans disapprove of the way President Trump is handling immigration policy than of his presidency as a whole, a new poll finds.

Most Americans — 59 percent — don’t approve of the President’s handling of immigration, according to a Washington Post-Schar School poll released on July 6, while 39 percent approve. Of that 59 percent, 44 percent strongly disapprove, and 15 percent only somewhat disapprove. Of those who approved of Trump’s immigration policies, only 19 percent did so strongly.

Trump’s approval rating was nearly as low on international trade following the spate of recent tariffs his administration has imposed on Mexico, China, Europe and Canada. About 41 percent approved of his international trade policy, and 57 percent disapproved, according to the poll. His overall approval rating stood at 43 percent.

I don’t need a poll in California. I want polls in WI, MN, PA, FL, MI, OH, etc.
