President Donald Trump is seeing a +7 net approval on his policy of deporting illegal immigrants from the United States, a recent CNBC survey found.
The All-America Economic Survey found that the public is strongly aligning with his handling of illegal immigration — one of his top priorities during the long campaign season.
A brief look at the survey’s results show Trump seeing a +12 approval on the southern border and +7 on deporting illegal immigrants.

Illegal immigrant crime became a major narrative throughout the Biden administration, as the open border policies invited more carnage to U.S. communities. Americans seized on the death of Rachel Morin, who was murdered by an illegal alien MS-13 gang member, Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez. He was convicted of her murder this week.
The murder of Laken Riley by an illegal immigrant and Jocelyn Nungaray’s murder, with which two illegal migrants are charged, gripped the nation as well, tragically showcasing the devastating impacts of the Biden administration’s open border policies.

Americans in November voted for change, yet Democrats are still continuing to defend illegal immigrant in a variety of bizarre ways, including coming to the rescue of a recently deported El Salvadorian national and alleged MS-13 gang member, who also has credible allegations of physical abuse against him.

2. He was arrested with two other members of MS-13.
3. Two judges found that he was a member of MS-13. That finding has not been disturbed.
4. When arrested he was wearing what is effectively MS-13’s uniform. pic.twitter.com/iDY7jP371Y
““I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia,” Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) wrote on X. “I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.”

Skipped the paperwork. Ignored the court order. Broke the law. Ignored the constitution.

This ain’t immigration policy. This is straight-up defiance of the rule of law. https://t.co/Z9EGbUooPc

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
As Breitbart News reported, “In October 2019, Abrego Garcia requested asylum in the United States, but that was denied by a federal immigration judge, though he was granted protection from deportation to El Salvador based on claims that he feared persecution from local gangs.”
ICE, however, arrested him on March 12 and subsequently deported him to his native El Salvador, where he remains at the Terrorism Confinement Center, known as the mega-prison CECOT.
