Trump admits deportation policy 'too harsh' after Latino voters defect

US President Donald Trump has admitted his administration's deportation policy toward undocumented migrants may have been "too harsh," following the Republicans' heavy defeat in the US congressional elections. He suggested a deal with Democrats could be possible for migrants working in sectors like agriculture and hospitality. Trump made the remarks in a CBS interview recorded after Tuesday's midterm losses, where many Latino voters turned away from Republicans. Nationwide, 58 percent of voters said Trump's deportation measures had "gone too far," according to CBS News. Despite Trump's admission, he appointed Stephen Miller, a key architect of the hardline deportation policy, as White House chief of staff. ICE was reportedly instructed to conduct about 19,000 arrests per week before the elections, with no current signs of a policy change.
