You know, the two American citizens who have been killed just in the past few weeks over this.
And really, the biggest movement has been with independents and Democrats.
By double digits, they've moved to saying that ICE has gone too far.
When you take Republicans out of it, it's just huge numbers.
I mean, 93 percent of Democrats, not surprising, right?
but also 71 percent of independents who Trump did fairly well with in the 2024 election, saying that they think ICE has gone too far.
And it irritates Trump, too, the fact that the narrative has gone toward ISIS tactics rather than talking about the border.
We've heard that from a lot of Republicans on Capitol Hill who continue to talk about that.
But it's of their own making, frankly.
I mean, that's the reason people are focused on it is because they're seeing what they're seeing on TV.
You have two Americans killed in these kinds of law enforcement activities.

And we've seen that over lots of polls over several months.
You know, this is a group that Trump did better than any Republican president in history with Latino voters or 46 percent of Latino voters, according to CNN.
exit polls.
So setting that as the baseline, the fact that only 38 percent in this poll approve of the job that Trump is doing, some 70 percent of Latinos disagree with how ICE is conducting their enforcement activities, saying that they think that ICE has gone too far, that they disapprove of ICE's tactics.
Look, far and away, the economy prices have been the thing that Latino voters have said that they care most about.
And on that, too, you have a majority of people overall saying that they think that the Trump administration should be focused on lowering prices and a plurality of Latinos as well.
And that he would focus on criminals.
