Summary

An Axios-Ipsos poll shows that while two-thirds of Americans, including 93% of Republicans, support mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, support declines when specific methods are proposed.

Only 38% favor using active-duty military, 28% back diverting military funds, and just one-third support separating families or deporting those who arrived as children.

Trump’s plans for mass deportations face logistical, economic, and public opinion challenges.

Experts note abstract support for deportations fades when Americans confront the complexities of implementation.

    … You think it’s embarrassing that I think that advertising works?? You’re hilariously naive to think that it doesn’t.

    Like I said, sure, we have a higher standard of living than most countries, but there are plenty of options when it comes to moving somewhere with a higher-value currency. And any other option will probably come with some form of socialized medicine and better protections for workers. Oh and they won’t have an incoming administration promising to deport everyone en masse and keep them in camps in the meantime.

          I’m not mad or picking a fight, it’s odd you see such powerful emotions in a very normal internet discussion, perhaps therapy would help… No what I was doing was leaving you with a dumb joke because I understood that despite the huge and well known economic benefits, you still think TV is why people want to move here
