Trump admits immigration crackdown was too tough after election loss

President Donald Trump acknowledged in a CBS 60 Minutes interview that his immigration crackdown may have been "too tough," citing backlash after the Republican Party's defeat in the November 3 midterm elections. Trump said the policy affected undocumented immigrants who work, pay taxes, and contribute to the economy, such as those in landscaping and hospitality, while noting voters also expressed dissatisfaction with the Iran war and rising living costs. The remarks follow Democrats winning control of both the House and Senate, but Trump's appointment of Stephen Miller, a hard-line immigration advocate, as Chief of Staff raises doubts about policy changes, and no specific reforms have been announced.
