“I have just come to the floor, having listened to the minority leader, the Democratic Senator from New York, say something to the effect that he thought that President Trump's policies were not popular with the American people. As he was saying this, I recalled a poll, a Harvard-Harris poll, conducted just this past week. Trump's policies--the key thing why he won election as President of the United States--huge popularity of what the President is doing today: promises that he made prior to the election, promises kept now that he is in the White House. Let's take a look at No. 1--deportation of illegal immigrants who have committed crimes. Mr. President, 81 percent of the American people--and that includes a lot of Democrats--say that is a very popular position taken by President Trump and now being enforced by President Trump. Eliminating fraud and waste in government expenditures--76 percent of Americans agree. What have we seen happen with DOGE? What we have seen is actually pointing out fraud and waste in government. The American people are supportive. Then, of course, closing the border. Again, 76 percent of Americans-- Republicans, Democrats, Independents--all across the board support what President Trump is doing. President Trump ran for office against a party that was a party of high prices and open borders, and it is because of those things that President Trump won and Republicans won the House and the Senate.…”
