Immigration: How Public Opinion Has Changed

In the past few years, the way people in the United States feel about immigration has changed a lot. This shift has given a certain politician a strong advantage. What's surprising is that this change in opinion has not led to the same kind of protests or pushback as before. Instead, it has become a key issue that has gained a lot of support from the public. The public's views on immigration have become more complex. People are now more open to stricter immigration policies. This is partly because of the policies of the previous administration, which saw a huge increase in migrants. The current administration has used this shift in public opinion to their advantage, even mocking critics and encouraging debates on the issue. Polls show that immigration is one of the few areas where the current administration has strong public support. This is despite the fact that they have pushed the limits of executive power and clashed with federal judges. The public's support for stricter immigration policies is evident in places like northern New Jersey, where the current administration overperformed in the last election. The administration has also expanded the limits of executive power, using old laws and rarely used provisions to deport people. This has included targeting students and others with legal status, as well as those who have sought asylum using legal channels. The administration has also been criticized for sending people to notorious prisons in other countries, even when they have no criminal record. The public's views on immigration are complex and changing. While some people support stricter policies, others are concerned about the administration's actions. The administration has embraced the fight on immigration, even encouraging debates on the issue. However, some people have urged the administration to steer clear of the issue, calling it a "distraction" from other issues.
