(The Center Square) – Polls are consistently showing two key indictments on the Biden-Harris administration border policy: Americans not only overwhelmingly oppose illegal immigration but also want troops sent to the southern border and the border secure.
Two new recent polls support this trend, although polls have consistently shown that Americans overwhelmingly disapprove of Vice President Kamala Harris’ job as “border czar.”
A new Napolitan News Service poll found that 84% of registered voters believe “illegal immigration is bad for the United States” compared to only 12% who say it is good.
The ratio of opposition/support to illegal immigration has “remained broadly unchanged for decades,” the news service says.
The overwhelming majority polled, 71%, said they support legal immigration, arguing it is good for the country. Those who oppose illegal immigration say it hurts Americans.
“That view has also remained stable for decades. Voters make a clear distinction between legal and illegal immigration,” the news service says.
The primary reason for opposition: crime. Among those polled, 49% cited crime as a top concern; 28% said illegal immigration allows criminals and terrorists into the country; 26% said it places a burden on the economy and healthcare; 16% that it allows in people who are dangerous; 5% that it allows in drugs and dealers.
“Overall, these numbers reflect the fact that voters see America as both a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws,” RMG Research president Scott Rasmussen said. “Voters understand why most immigrants want to bring their families to the land of opportunity. But they are angry at the federal government for allowing and encouraging illegal immigration.”
In a separate poll, 75% said they support sending U.S. troops to “challenge drug cartels and secure the border.”
“That’s up significantly since President Biden took office and the total includes 90% of Republicans and 62% of Democrats,” Napolitan News Service said.
The findings are consistent with several other polls.
A recent Rasmussen Reports poll found that nearly two-thirds surveyed say the southern border crisis should be called an invasion. Large majorities said border security is a vital national security interest (70%) and acknowledged what’s happening is a crisis (72%).
This is after Texas changed the conversation on the border, introducing the term and concept of invasion to the American public, with 55 counties declaring an invasion. Sixty counties also issued disaster declarations citing the border crisis.
A recent Monmouth University Polling Institute report found the majority polled said they support building a border wall, a policy former President Donald Trump implemented that Biden ended on his first day in office. The majority polled, over 80%, said illegal immigration is “either a very serious (61%) or somewhat serious (23%) problem.”
“Public concern about illegal immigration is higher during President Joe Biden’s term than it was under the prior two administrations,” the institute said.
A University of Texas/Texas Politics Project poll found that the majority of Texans, including Hispanics and Blacks, support building a wall and border security measures. It also found that Democrats in Texas are increasingly supporting Trump.
Overall, 65% of all Texas voters said they support Texas building its own wall and barriers; 57% support Texas installing marine buoys in the Rio Grande River; 66% support deploying additional state police and military resources to the border.
A majority of Hispanic Texas voters, 56%, also disapprove of Biden’s handling of immigration and border security, the UT/TPP poll found.
Another UT/TPP poll found that Texans overwhelmingly support Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security efforts through Operation Lone Star, including supporting Texas installing marine barriers, constructing a border wall and physical barriers at the Texas-Mexico border, deploying additional resources to the border, and busing illegal foreign nationals north.
These findings are similar to those from The Center Square Voters’ Voice polls conducted in conjunction with Noble Predictive Insights. One poll last year found that 82% of Americans are concerned about border security. Among them, 50% said the border crisis became worse under the Biden-Harris administration.
Another from March found that 62% of voters say the U.S. is moving in the wrong direction under the Biden-Harris administration with yet another showing that illegal immigration nearly ties inflationary high costs as the top concern.
Another Voter’s Voice poll found that Americans want states to play a role in border security, supporting Texas and other state’s right to secure their borders.
The radicals will do everything they can to overthrow and take over this country by any means possible. If Cackles gets in it’s over for this country as we knew it.
The lies, cons, deceptions, hypocrisy, and treachery of this Lying, destructive, corrupt, treasonous, dishonest, unethical Democrat Party cabal and their useful idiot supporters know no bounds. This treasonous Democrat Party and its “useful idiot” supporters will Do or say Anything to be able to dictate control, then access power and retain it by any means available. No matter the costs to the people, the government, or the nation.
When it comes to the border and Kamala, she is like the demented kitchen queen who bakes up a cake, puts it in the oven, then jumps up and down just for the pleasure of watching the cake fall, before it can bloom into something edible. Failure is her comfort zone and flooding the self-governing red states with socially dependent hordes of Huns and Hamas minded people to undermine those red states from the ability to self-govern is frankly unforgivable personally, and treasonous politically. Just what if anything is there about little Ms. Democrat Party leader Anointed who got not one primary vote this election cycle, nor more than 1% back in 2019 that makes her fit to run a nation designed only for the strong, the brave, the independent people who are faithful to the American truths that set men free? ,,,and fear not fair and honest political competition without a mind manipulating media at their beck and call to present the weak, the tattered and torn, and the morally vapid as some totally different from what they really are and have proven themselves to be? Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice ( Biden AND Harris) shame on me. When fools get elected, THE PEOPLE get collected, directed, disconnected, and dejected, when sanity gets rejected.
Troops alone won’t do jack, UNTIL AND UNLESS they are actually authorized to DO SOMETHING TO stop the invaders… AS IS all we’ve seen prior troop deployments, all they are used for is MORE PROCESSORS Of those who are ‘accepted’ in…

And Yet the Treasonous, destructive, lying, woke, DEI, socialist Democrat Party’s News/Political propaganda media is trying to convince and BS WE the PEOPLE into thinking that the majority of citizens want the lying Kamaleon Harris and Tampon Walz to Mislead our country into destruction!
This treasonous, lying Democrat Party are the ones who orchestrate and fabricated this illegal immigrant crisis and forcing the U.S. taxpayers to totally support them.
And Americans sick and tired fo the street violence and mistreatment of our police are anxiously waiting for their city and state leaders to make use of the guns police were issued and take it to the criminals who have taken it to us, without fear of reprisal by some cheesy political Walz type leader whose national guard training turned out to be a total waste of the tax payers paid for 24 years of training, when he stood down the national guard he was train to lead, and surrendered to the Minneapolis street mayhem creators, like a Biden turning tail in Afghanistan. Say what you want about Chicago Mayor Daly, but when the riots broke out he ordered his police force that if you catch them lootin,,,,shoot’em. Snuffing out a guy like George floyd while cuffed and on the ground under the influence is one thing,,,,shooting a protester caught looting a jewelry store, or defacing a sacred monument is another. Believe me, only a few examples would need to be made to get the message out that crime will not pay, unless it is paid with the life of the offender. If police refuse to use their guns, then just take them away and let the mayhem that follows wake THE PEOPLE up to reality.
PITY those voters, seem in poll after poll, to be MORE in favor of harris/waltz than they do trump.. IF You believe the polls that is.
These polls demonstrate that the criminal bureaucratic government and the democrat Marxist party don’t care what the citizens want nor do they care for the constitution!
Their one and only goal is to destroy the republic and criminally size power like all other communist countries!
And it looks like they have succeeded!

“That view” reflects obvious, demonstrable, facts. The facts have remained stable.
