Summary
A new Quinnipiac University poll shows President Donald Trump’s approval rating on immigration has dropped to 41%, its lowest point during his second term, with 57% disapproving. The decline reflects growing public backlash against the administration's aggressive immigration policies, including mass deportations, expanded ICE raids, military involvement, and legal maneuvers. These actions have intensified partisan divisions and triggered protests, especially in cities like Los Angeles, where recent federal raids led to demonstrations and curfews.

The poll also found that 56% of voters disapprove of ICE's enforcement tactics. Trump's approval on immigration has steadily declined since January 2025, when it stood at 47%. Despite this trend, Trump remains defiant, promoting his "remigration" agenda on Truth Social, blaming the Biden administration for an “invasion” of undocumented immigrants, and praising ICE officers as heroes.

Political analysts suggest that Trump's drop in approval is tied to public discomfort with his harsh immigration stance, but note that he prioritizes support from his base over broader public opinion. Conservative voices, however, argue immigration remains a winning issue for Trump.

As opposition grows, future legal or policy changes could further shift the national conversation and shape how immigration enforcement is carried out in the months ahead.
