Yeah, I’d be interested to see how a question like “are you worried that you might be deported” might poll. irrespective of whether you’re a Democrat or a republican, both parties can agree immigration needs reform. But the way you go about it matters too and thats a different question.

Newsweek* (*= not the "Newsweek you grew up with) regularly platforms Rasmussen polls.

Earth Two is the only explanation for this.

I wonder what the response would be if if the illegal immigrant question was phrased as: "Do you approve or disapprove of masked, armed ICE agents, sweeping people off the streets and sending them to unknown locations without a trial"

It's all about how you ask the question. I'm not surprised they get +7 on "deporting illegal immigrants", they wouldn't get nearly that positive a result with "deporting illegal immigrants to death camps". Nor "deporting legal immigrants to death camps". Nor "deporting US Citizens to death camps".

There's another way to read this. The capitalism sinks him but the fascism (and white supremacy) covers it. Not so flattering to Americans and in many ways the same old story.

People respond better to stories about 1 person's plight than the plight of many ("psychic numbing"). It's disturbing that so many Americans aren't horrified by the way we're deporting "illegal immigrants" without due process.

Democrats must speak up for the people who for the most part came to this country for a better life. They should focus on individual stories like Abrego Garcia to make what we're doing real. We should be outraged by the way we're destroying the lives of human beings. How Christian is that?

Circumspectral @catpushmike.bsky.social

I think it’s always good to mention Trump’s policies aren’t about fixing “the border”. They’re about terrorizing people he doesn’t like. He opposed the bipartisan immigration bill because a perception of crisis would help him win. That’s the extent of his concern about the border.

Mike @mikernfn.bsky.social

It is all in how you phrase the question. The public is generally in favor of deporting illegal immigrants. This is why you should not characterize El Salvador as a deportation. It is (accurately) an indefinite IMPRISONMENT without hearing or trial. I doubt that would poll well.

Can we finally stop the BULLSHIT on immigration. Border crossings began to drop in December of 2023. By June of 2024 they were evaporating. What Trump "inherited" were a number of crossings FAR below the averages in 2019 when Trump was President. Please share: www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

WHAT MANDATE? "President Donald Trump is closing out the first quarter of his second term in office with an average 45% job approval rating, well below all other post-World War II presidents elected in the U.S. The average first-quarter rating for all presidents elected since 1952 is 60%."

Sorry, but this is just wrong; undocumented immigration is a huge issue for border cities and states for a lot of reasons. Yes the vast majority of people wringing their hands about the border are stirred up by right wing agitprop, but disregarding it completely as a serious issue is a mistake.
