Trump Post Says ICE Approval Rating Has Taken a Hit'  But His Is Solid'
"On Monday night, the president fired off two poll-related posts on Truth Social. The first one preposterously claimed that his current numbers are the best he has ever received. The highest Poll Numbers I have ever received, he wrote. Obviously, people like a strong and powerful Country, with the best economy, EVER! It was unclear what Trump was referring to, as recent surveys have consistently shown his overall approval rating well underwater, in addition to his approval ratings on specific issues."
"In a subsequent post, the president linked to a McLaughlin survey. Text accompanying the link stated, McLaughlin Poll, But Trump Stays Solid. The poll showed Trump's approval rating at 50%, unchanged since last month. ICE's image has taken a hit, McLaughlin reported. Its favorable rating now stands at 42%, with 50% unfavorable. Among Hispanic voters, ICE is viewed unfavorably by a 58% to 31% margin."
Posts on Truth Social claimed highest poll numbers and linked a McLaughlin survey showing 50% approval, unchanged month-to-month. The McLaughlin poll reported ICE favorability at 42% with 50% unfavorable, and a 58% to 31% unfavorable margin among Hispanic voters. RealClearPolitics polling averages suggest the McLaughlin results are an outlier. Federal immigration agents recently fatally shot two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis, where about 3,000 agents have been deployed; agents have detained children and arrested asylum-seekers. An internal ICE memo told agents they do not need a judicial warrant to enter people's homes. Other recent surveys show overall approval ratings generally lower.
