Trump Calls for US Citizen Deportations, Sparks Nationwide Backlash

News summary

A recent CBS News/YouGov poll highlights a complex landscape of American opinion on President Trump's deportation program, with support largely hinging on the belief that the policy targets dangerous criminals, while support drops sharply if the scope is perceived to be broader. Nearly half of Americans feel the administration is deporting more people than expected, leading to significant disapproval, especially concerning the risk of legal residents being mistakenly deported. President Trump has aggressively expanded immigration enforcement through ICE, detaining tens of thousands, many without violent or any criminal records, and has pushed legal measures that could affect birthright citizenship and deportation eligibility, including for some U.S. citizens. At a recent event, Trump defended his immigration policies, blaming previous administrations for past immigration issues and emphasizing the presence of violent offenders in the country. The opening of a new detention center, dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz," coincided with the Senate's approval of what Trump calls the "Big Beautiful Bill," which bolsters his immigration crackdown. These developments have sparked widespread debate about the scope and human impact of the administration's immigration policies, reflecting deep partisan divisions and public unease.
