Trump admits deportation policy was 'too harsh' in CBS interview

lefigaro.fr (French) —

President Donald Trump admitted in a CBS interview that his administration's mass deportation policy was "too harsh," days after his party's midterm election defeat. He did not specify whether he plans to change the approach. The admission follows Tuesday's elections, where Democrats won broadly and Hispanic voters who previously supported Trump turned against him, citing unmet promises on prices and indiscriminate deportations. Trump recently promoted hardline adviser Stephen Miller to chief of staff. Vice President JD Vance, attributing the Republican loss mainly to the Iran war, said he was "open to modifying enforcement practices," proposing more targeted actions such as focusing on businesses hiring undocumented workers.
