Trump Getting Wide Bipartisan Support For His Deportation Of Illegal Alien Criminals: Poll

A stunning new survey shows that President Donald Trump’s policy to rapidly deport illegal alien criminals is being well-received by most Americans, including a very large plurality of Democrats.

According to a poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports from April 15 to 17, fifty-six percent of likely voters believe it is “very important” to deport migrant criminals, while only five percent feel it is “not at all important.”

The poll also revealed that Democratic voters reflect a similar sentiment, matching the national response with an eleven-to-one ratio.

Forty-three percent of Democrats believe that deportations are “very important,” while only eight percent consider it “not at all important.” The rest of the voters view the issue as either “somewhat important” or “not very important,” and their voting decisions are unlikely to be influenced by it.

Majorities of Hispanic and Black voters identified deportations as a “very important” issue in shaping their vote, along with one-third of self-identified liberals, the poll found.

The overwhelming support marks a political victory for Trump, who has been building momentum for his aggressive deportation policies, even as Democrats push for border decisions to be guided by pro-migration judges and legal advocates.

Trump noted on social media: “How can Biden let Millions of Criminals into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted, with no Legal authority to do so, yet I, in order to make up for this assault to our Nation, am expected to go through a lengthy Legal process, separately, for each and every Criminal Alien.”

He added: “We cannot give everyone a trial, because to do so would take, without exaggeration, 200 years. We would need hundreds of thousands of trials for the hundreds of thousands of Illegals we are sending out of the Country. Such a thing is not possible to do.”

The Rasmussen poll also indicated strong bipartisan public support for the law-and-order policy implemented by El Salvador’s popular President Nayib Bukele.

In a second question, Rasmussen asked voters for their response to a statement that Bukele made to President Donald Trump in their Oval Office meeting: “Mr. President, you have 350 million people to liberate. You cannot just, you know, free the criminals and think crime is going to go down magically, you have to imprison them [criminals] so you can liberate 350 million Americans that are asking for the end of crime and the end of terrorism, and it can be done.”

According to Rasmussen, 43 percent of respondents strongly agreed with Bukele’s statement, while another 23 percent somewhat agreed. Only 9 percent strongly disagreed with Bukele, including just 24 percent of self-identified liberals, Breitbart News reported, citing the survey’s results.
