Border Security: Battleground Districts and Trust u.s

border security: Americans are more closely divided on the question of whether enough is being done to prevent illegal immigration and whether the country has gone too far in welcoming immigrants, according to Toronto Star. Also, more people say they trust U.S. President Donald Trump than congressional Democrats to deal with the issue of border security. On other aspects of the immigration debate, however, a more mixed picture emerges. The support for Trump on the border security issue is especially evident in congressional districts considered key battlegrounds in this fall's midterm elections. EDUARDO MUNOZ ALVAREZ / AFP/GETTY IMAGES Democrats appear more energized than Republicans about the fall elections, especially in battleground districts. A poll found nearly seven out of 10 Americans surveyed said they opposed the policy that separated immigrant children from their parents, compared with 29 per cent who said they supported the policy.
