Trump admits deportation policy was 'too harsh' after midterm losses

bfmtv.com (French) —

President Donald Trump admitted in a CBS interview aired Sunday that his administration's mass deportation policy was "too harsh," days after his party's defeat in the midterm elections. Trump made the remark when asked about immigration enforcement, though he did not specify whether he would change his approach. The statement follows Tuesday's Democratic victories, with Hispanic voters who previously supported him turning away over unmet price promises and perceived indiscriminate deportations. The apparent shift comes after Trump promoted hardline adviser Stephen Miller to White House chief of staff. Vice President JD Vance, attributing the loss mainly to the Iran war, has proposed targeting employers of undocumented workers instead.
