Trump calls deportation policy 'too harsh' after midterm losses

President Donald Trump admitted Sunday in a CBS interview that his administration's mass deportation policy was "too harsh," days after Republicans suffered significant losses in the midterm elections. He did not specify whether he plans to change the approach. The admission follows Tuesday's elections, where Hispanic voters who previously supported Trump turned against him, citing unfulfilled promises on prices and indiscriminate deportation practices. Trump recently promoted hardline adviser Stephen Miller to White House chief of staff. Vice President JD Vance, attributing the Republican defeat 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.
