Support for President Donald Trump’s immigration policies has dropped to its lowest level since he re-entered the White House, a recent Reuters/Ipsos survey reveals. The poll indicates he’s also losing support among male voters, a demographic that heavily backed him in the 2024 election.
Only 38% of participants in the four-day survey, which concluded on Monday, believe Trump is handling immigration well—a key issue for his administration. This marks a slight decline from 39% in a January Reuters/Ipsos poll and is significantly lower than the 50% support seen shortly after Trump took office again.
Leading up to his 2024 re-election bid, Trump pledged to initiate the largest deportation effort in decades and ordered widespread immigration raids immediately after resuming office in January 2025. Today, masked agents in tactical gear are a common sight in the U.S., and immigration enforcement actions have often led to violent clashes with protesters and activists.
The latest Ipsos/Reuters poll shows a notable decline in Trump’s immigration approval among men in recent weeks compared to late last year. Men were crucial to his 2024 victory, and throughout 2025, nearly half of male respondents approved of his immigration policies. However, current data shows only 41% of men support him on this issue. Among women, support has slightly decreased from around 40% earlier in 2025 to 35% in this most recent poll.
In a rare setback, Trump’s administration announced last week it would terminate its contentious deportation campaign in Minnesota, where immigration agents fatally shot two Americans. When he first entered office, Trump’s overall approval hovered around 47%, but recently, support has plunged to 38%, matching the lowest ratings of his presidency. This latest survey, which was conducted online across the nation with responses from 1,117 adults and a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points, underscores his slipping popularity.
