"Americans, broadly speaking from all the polls, are happy for people who are in the country illegally, who then commit crimes unconnected to their status, to be deported, it's the behavior of ICE on the streets of American cities and towns in going way too far with people who may have been in the country for ten years, raised kids, got jobs, paid taxes, and so on, that is not supported by the American people."
"Morgan went on to predict that in the midterms, Trump is going to get the whiplash back from that, and they're gonna lose the House, and then he'll become effectively, as everyone does in that scenario, a bit of a lame duck president. And if that happens, he'll only have himself to blame for going too far with the way that ICE has been on the streets, he concluded."
Trump closed the southern border following large-scale crossings under the prior administration, and polls indicate broad support for deporting undocumented immigrants who commit unrelated crimes. ICE enforcement that targets long-term residents who have raised families, worked, and paid taxes is unpopular and is driving backlash, particularly among Latino communities. That backlash could translate into midterm losses for Republicans, potentially costing them the House and rendering the president a lame duck. The MAGA movement has also faced criticism for becoming thin-skinned and censorious, and calls arose for an apology after controversial remarks about allied troops.
