Trump facing growing cultural revolt against immigration crackdown
Over 60 corporate leaders and notable entertainers criticize expanded immigration enforcement after fatal confrontations, with approval dropping to 38%, according to an AP-NORC poll.
- President Donald Trump is confronting a broad cultural revolt over immigration enforcement, with criticism from business, sports, and entertainment sectors following recent federal operations in Minnesota.
- Federal agents remain deployed in Minnesota, where thousands operate amid two U.S. citizen deaths, while operations expanded into Maine and Tom Homan, border czar, replaced Greg Bovino, Border Patrol commander.
- Cultural figures amplified criticism when more than 60 corporate executives called for de-escalation after Alex Pretti's death, with Bruce Springsteen condemning enforcement tactics.
- Earlier this month, an AP-NORC poll found 38% of U.S. adults approve of Trump's immigration handling, while support among self-described Republicans fell from 88% to 76%, and Republican leaders warned this could risk control of Congress.
- On Tuesday, Trump offered mixed signals when he said `We’re going to de-escalate a little bit` but warned Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey he was `PLAYING WITH FIRE`, while Republican strategist Doug Heye said the White House is 'spooked' and advisers push for tougher action.
