Trump admits deportation policy may have been 'too harsh' but no shift expected
President Donald Trump acknowledged his administration's immigration deportation policies may have been "too harsh," following the Republican Party's significant losses in the midterm elections. He left open whether he would change course. Trump made the remarks in a CBS interview after Republicans lost control of the House, with 58 percent of voters nationwide saying his deportation measures went too far. Many Latino voters, particularly in Texas, shifted away from the GOP over immigration concerns. Despite the admission, no policy change is expected. Trump appointed Stephen Miller, a key architect of the hardline deportation agenda, as White House chief of staff, signaling continued enforcement of aggressive immigration policies.
