Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : Immigration has been at the forefront of Trump's Make America Great
42% : What Trump and Vance are doing is "using an on-the-ground story with a lot of momentum behind it, basically a viral moment, to direct attention to the broader issue of immigration," said Northwestern University historian Kathleen Belew in an interview with The New Yorker.
41% : An August AP-NORC poll, for example, found that voters trusted Trump to handle immigration more than Harris by a margin of 46-36%, which is in line with other surveys showing a modest but consistent advantage for Republicans on the issue.
32% : But how did Trump come to believe this rumor, and why does his campaign continue to defend what he said at the debate?
17% : Trump and his allies have consistently boosted negative stories about immigrants, including so-called caravans of migrants making their way through Central America and Mexico to the U.S. southern border and crimes committed by undocumented immigrants, which Trump has dubbed "migrant crime."
