Trump concedes deportation policy may have cost Republicans the midterms
President Donald Trump said his administration's deportation policy "might have been too tough" for voters, citing it as a reason Republicans lost control of Congress in the midterm elections. In a "60 Minutes" interview aired Sunday, Trump said he believes a deal with the new Democratic majority on immigration is "doable," though he offered no specifics. He suggested deporting "killers" and "drug dealers" but allowing others to stay if they are "good people" working and paying taxes. Shortly after the interview was taped Friday, Trump named Stephen Miller, the architect of his hard-line immigration agenda, as his new chief of staff. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer called the move "a promotion," not a course correction, while Democrats plan to prioritize oversight of immigration agencies.
