Former President Donald Trump has pledged to conduct the largest deportation in U.S. history if elected for a second term. During his presidential campaign, he anticipated he would invoke wartime means to achieve this, proposing the use of military-guarded encampments to round up and deport undocumented immigrants – an idea almost half of Americans and most conservatives support, according to a new survey.
The 2024 American Values Survey conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute found that 50% of Americans opposed the idea of setting encampments, while 47% favored it.
