Specifically, 45% of likely voters rated his performance as &#8220;good to excellent,&#8221; while 52% rated it as &#8220;fair to poor.&#8221; Republican voters largely support Trump&#8217;s strict border policies, but Democrats and a majority of independents disapprove. The dip in approval comes amid discussions about potential exceptions or protections for migrant farm and hospitality workers, which some critics interpret as a form of amnesty-an accusation Trump and his aides have denied. Additionally, the proposed detention facility in florida known as &#8220;Alligator Alcatraz&#8221; remains a divisive issue, with nearly equal approval and disapproval among voters, supported mainly by Republicans but opposed by most Democrats and independents.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump immigration rating turns negative<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2171151\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Strong support for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">President Donald Trump&rsquo;s<\/a> immigration agenda appears to have peaked, with more voters than not now giving him a thumbs down amid talk of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3439859\/trump-order-migrant-farm-workers-coming-immigration-crackdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">amnesty for farm workers<\/a> and concerns about Florida&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/watch\/2171359\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">&ldquo;Alligator Alcatraz.&rdquo;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rasmussenreports.com\/public_content\/politics\/trump_administration_second_term\/alligator_alcatraz_divides_voters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Rasmussen Reports<\/a> survey of likely voters on Trump&rsquo;s handling of immigration, he is upside down with 45% giving him a &ldquo;good to excellent&rdquo; grade and 52% a &ldquo;fair to poor&rdquo; score.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3468026\/silencer-sales-up-265-will-surge-under-big-beautiful-bill\/\">Silencer sales up 265%, will surge under &lsquo;big, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mike-johnson-fights-to-keep-trumps-ear-as-house-agenda-stalls-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"Mike Johnson fights to keep Trump\u2019s ear as House agenda stalls - Washington Examiner\">beautiful bill&#038;rsquo<\/a>;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3467648\/flip-flop-justice-search-for-epstein-files-is-still-ongoing\/\">Flip-flop: Justice search for Epstein files is still &#8216;ongoing&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3466775\/trump-campaign-promises-kept-cygnal-poll\/\">Trump seen as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kimberly-guilfoyle-escapes-trump-family-drama-at-confirmation-hearing\/\" title=\"Kimberly Guilfoyle escapes Trump family drama at confirmation hearing\">rare promise keeper<\/a>, especially with new voters<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>Notably, 34% said the president was doing an &ldquo;excellent&rdquo; job while 44% said his performance has been &ldquo;poor.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Partisans took their usual positions.
