Trump returned to office in January pledging to carry out the largest mass deportation program in U.S. history and take other dramatic steps to deter people from illegally entering the country. The number of people illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border reached its lowest point in decades last month.
The Trump administration has celebrated the strides it has made in securing the border, but the poll found Americans dislike Trump’s handling of the issue by a wide margin. Sixty-two percent gave him negative marks on how he has managed immigration, while 35 percent graded him positively.
