We break down President Trump's midterm strategy, including that $5,000 promise.
This week on the MPR Politics Podcast.
In 2024, President Trump ran on a platform of reducing illegal immigration.

voice-verified
Whether either directly or indirectly, it feels like.
voice-verified
Yeah, I mean I I keep thinking back to this episode that we had on the pod earlier this year involving, I think, a focus group in Arizona where a lot of these swing voters, this critical electoral group uh of made up of people who are in the country legally, a majority of them said that immigration raids had in some way impacted their day to day lives.
