Republicans' edge on immigration shrinks as independents balk at Trump's tactics, AP-NORC poll shows

A new AP-NORC poll finds that about 6 in 10 U.S. adults believe that President Donald Trump has “gone too far” in sending federal immigration agents into U.S. cities. The survey also shows that the Republican Party’s political advantage on Trump's signature domestic issue has shrunk since October. The new polling comes as the nation watches the human impact of Trump’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota, where thousands of heavily armed masked agents have descended upon the capital city. About 9 in 10 Democrats and about 7 in 10 independents say Trump has “gone too far” in sending federal immigration agents into U.S. cities, compared to only about one-quarter of Republicans.
