Trump's Immigration Plans and Public Sentiment

Donald Trump and his advisors are planning to deport a significant number of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S., presenting this plan as humane. Alina Haba, a prominent lawyer for Trump, indicates that families will not be separated during deportation; rather, entire families will be removed together. This messaging seeks to mitigate public concern stemming from previous administration policies that resulted in family separations and human rights violations. However, many Americans are likely to react negatively to the sight of families being forcibly removed, which reveals a disconnect between the administration's narrative and public sentiment.
