President Donald Trump is underwater with Americans who no longer trust him on the issue of immigration, which was one of his top two issues during the 2024 campaign. It comes days after polls showed that voters no longer trust him to act in the interest of national security.

In a post on X, The New Republic's Greg Sargent pointed to a newly released Quinnipiac poll, which finds a 14-point swing among Americans who want to give undocumented immigrants a pathway to citizenship instead of deporting them. Only 31% of Americans want to see immigrants deported. Just a few short months ago, Americans were evenly split on whether they wanted to support immigrants living in the United States.

"This is remarkable," Sargent wrote about the poll.

Sargent also pointed out just "how badly the media botched" the story about where Americans stood on immigration.
