The incoming president has suggested that he will declare a national emergency to speed up the removal of illegal aliens<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some 57% of Americans approve of President-elect Donald Trump\u2019s proposed deportation of every single illegal immigrant in the US, a CBS News poll has found. Democrat mayors and governors have vowed to resist the incoming president\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n

Published on Sunday, the poll found broad satisfaction with Trump\u2019s defeat of Vice President Kamala Harris in this month\u2019s presidential election, with 55% of respondents saying that they felt \u2018happy\u2019 or \u2018satisfied\u2019 with the result, and 44% feeling \u2018angry\u2019 or \u2018dissatisfied\u2019.<\/p>\n

The poll also found that 57% of respondents approve of one of Trump\u2019s most controversial proposals: the deportation of all immigrants in the US illegally. 43% disapprove of the policy.<\/p>\n

Trump has promised since last year that, if elected, he would lead \u201cthe largest deportation operation in American history.\u201d<\/em> With anywhere from 11 million to 35 million<\/a> illegal immigrants living in the US, Trump\u2019s proposed border czar, Tom Homan, has said that those who commit crimes in the country or otherwise threaten national security will be prioritized for deportation.<\/p>\n

Trump confirms plan to use military for deportations<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The incoming president said before the election that he would invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to \u201cremove all known or suspected gang members, drug dealers, or cartel members from the United States.\u201d<\/em> This law gives the president authority to bypass immigration courts, although critics argue that it only applies when the US is at war with a foreign government and cannot be used to deal with transnational gangs and their members.<\/p>\n

Last week, Trump shared an article on his Truth Social platform suggesting that he would declare a national emergency and \u201cuse military assets to reverse the [President Joe] Biden invasion through a mass deportation program.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

According to the CBS poll, 82% of respondents want Trump to use immigration and border patrol agencies to carry out the deportations, while 40% support the use of the US military.<\/p>\n

Harris repeatedly criticized Trump\u2019s deportation plans on the campaign trail, arguing that it would \u201ctear families apart.\u201d<\/em> Speaking to CBS last month, Homan dismissed this concern, declaring that \u201cfamilies can be deported together.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Several Democrat mayors and governors have pledged to resist any deportation operation, with Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey stating that she would \u201cabsolutely not\u201d<\/em> allow state police to assist federal immigration agents, and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy telling reporters that his administration would take any \u201caction we deem to be necessary\u201d<\/em> to stymie Trump\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n

\u201dIf you\u2019re not going to help us, get the hell out of the way because we\u2019re going to do it,\u201d<\/em> Homan told Fox News earlier this month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
