Trump Admits Immigration Crackdown Was Too Tough, Suggests Amnesty After Midterm Losses

President Donald Trump admitted his immigration crackdown was "too tough" and may have cost Republicans the midterms, where Democrats regained Congress, in his first major interview since the defeat. Trump suggested working with Democrats on amnesty for undocumented immigrants who have been in the U.S. for 10-15 years, though he appointed hardliner Stephen Miller as chief of staff, and officials expect enforcement to continue. The admission follows backlash over ICE raids in Democrat-run cities, including a January shooting in Minneapolis, and Trump also cited the Iran conflict as a factor in the election losses.
