President Trump has privately raised concerns that elements of his administration's deportation strategy have gone too far, urging advisers to refocus enforcement on "criminals" rather than broad "mass deportation" efforts, according a new report.
In conversations with senior aides, Trump has emphasized that the administration should prioritize arresting "bad guys" and reduce the visibility of large-scale operations that have drawn public scrutiny. "We've got to focus on the criminals," he has told advisers, according to one senior official cited by WSJ.
