A majority of Hispanics back the mass deportation of illegals from the U.S., according to the results of a recent opinion poll. The survey conducted by CBS News and YouGov polled 1,615 registered voters between June 5 and June 7, and had a margin of error of 3.8 points. It found that 62 percent of respondents overall would favor the federal government commencing "a new national program to deport all undocumented immigrants currently living in the U.S. illegally." Only 38 percent of respondents overall said they would oppose such a program. The poll also found that based on ethnicity, mass deportation was popular with Hispanics (53 percent for, 47 percent against) and Whites (67 percent for, 33 percent against). Fifty-three percent of Blacks meanwhile opposed mass deportation, compared to 47 percent in favor. The CBS News/YouGov poll's results mirror an earlier survey by Axios, whose results were published in April. It found that a majority of Americans, including 45 percent of Hispanics, support the mass deportations of illegals. According to Newsweek, "the results of the latest survey indicate that many would back former President Donald Trump's plan to launch the largest deportation operation in U.S. history if he wins back the White House in November."

"The polling is reflective of just how dissatisfied American voters are with the failure of both Republicans and Democrats to secure the border," said Thomas Gift, director of the Center on U.S. Politics at University College London in the United Kingdom. "Immigration is again surging to the top of the 'most important problem' list because Washington has shown itself completely ill-equipped to execute common-sense immigration enforcement."

Trump promises MASS DEPORTATIONS if elected to a second term

Mirroring Gift's remarks, immigration regularly ranks among the voters' top issues ahead of the U.S. presidential elections. Trump and incumbent President Joe Biden are set to face of in a repeat of the 2020 race. The real estate mogul and presumptive Republican presidential nominee has made cracking down on illegal immigration a centerpiece of his campaign. This strategy, Newsweek pointed out, fueled his rise to power in 2016. Trump expounded on his plan to address illegal immigration if elected to a second term in an April interview with Time magazine. He floated the idea of using the National Guard as part of mass deportation efforts and even insinuated the possible use of active-duty military members. "If I thought things were getting out of control, I would have no problem using the military, per se," Trump said at the time. "We have to have safety in our country. We have to have law and order in the country. And whichever gets us there, but I think the National Guard will do the job." Meanwhile, Biden took action earlier this month by issuing an executive order (EO) that effectively halts asylum claims at the southern border. The EO issued June 5, which limits asylum processing once encounters with migrants between ports of entry reach 2,500 daily, immediately went into effect. Latest figures from immigration authorities found that encounters with migrants were far higher than the 2,500 limit – about 4,000 daily. Thus, the EO served as an effort on Biden's part to deflect attacks against him on his handling of immigration. According to the incumbent Democratic chief executive, Republicans had left him with no choice but to issue the EO after GOP lawmakers – urged by Trump – shot down a bipartisan asylum reform bill. Had it passed, it would have overhauled the asylum system to provide faster and tougher immigration enforcement. But recent numbers show that Biden's EO is having little effect on the number of illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border.
