WASHINGTON ¨C U.S. President Donald Trump¡¯s aggressive campaign to deport immigrants could weigh on his Republican Party in November¡¯s midterm congressional elections, a Reuters/Ipsos poll has found.
Some 52% of Americans in the six-day poll completed Monday said they were less likely to support a candidate who backs Trump¡¯s approach to deportations, significantly more than the 42% who said they were more likely to support such a candidate.
The disadvantage for Trump allies was more stark among people who don¡¯t identify with either major political party, with ?57% ?of independents saying they prefer a candidate who opposes Trump¡¯s deportations and 32% preferring candidates who support Trump the issue.?
