Globally, 15 percent of respondents who want too leave their country selected the U.S.as their preferred destination, the top choice among potential destinations. This is lower than 24 percent in 2009 and about 18 percent during Trump\u2019s first term.The survey encompassed about 144,000 people in 140 countries and includes 2023 results from China. Regionally, results show declines in Latin America: willingness to move to the U.S. dropped from 33 percent in 2024 to 28 percent in 2025; in Mexico it fell to 21 percent, and in Honduras from 71 percent to 36 percent. The article also references Trump\u2019s proclamations and State Department warnings about visa fraud and the consequences of attempting to enter or remain in the United States illegally.  <\/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\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?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<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>A new survey showed that President Donald Trump&rsquo;s crackdown on illegal immigration is sending a message.<\/p>\n<p>A survey from <a href=\"https:\/\/news.gallup.com\/poll\/708614\/desire-migrate-drops-new-low.aspx?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gallup<\/a> indicated that as Trump pushes to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/illegal-immigrants-guilty-of-dui-assault-will-not-be-deported-under-biden-plan\/\" title=\"...

In its 2025 migration survey, Gallup found that 15% of people worldwide who want to leave their country would choose the United States as their destination of choice, making the U.S. the top potential destination. This is down from 24% in 2009 (during the Obama era) and roughly 18% during Trump\u2019s first term. The 2025 results come from 144,000 respondents in 140 countries and also include 2023 data from China, the most recent year the question was asked there.<\/p>\n<p>The survey asked respondents who wanted to leave whether they would prefer to move permanently to another country or stay where they are, and then where they would ideally like to live. The findings indicate that as Trump has tightened restrictions on illegal immigration from Mexico and Central America, the United States has become less attractive to people in those regions. In 2024, 33% of Latin Americans said they would like to move to the United States, but that share fell to 28% in 2025. In Mexico, 21% of those surveyed expressed a desire to move to the U.S., dropping back to the level seen during the first Trump administration after earlier Biden-era highs. In Honduras, the inclination to migrate to the United States dropped substantially, from 71% to 36%.<\/p>\n<p>The article notes that Trump has not apologized for his stance. It also quotes his public remarks and proclamations about protecting the United States from foreign nationals who might commit terrorist acts or threaten national security, and about exercising vigilance in visa and immigration processes to prevent admission of people who could harm the country.
