The polling was conducted after two lethal shootings involving federal agents.
While Democrats are trying to beat down President Donald Trump over lethal shootings by federal agents in Minnesota, a new poll shows that a slim majority approves of his response to the protests.
The online poll was conducted by the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard and the Harris Poll and found that of all categories listed, Trump's favorability was highest over the Minneapolis anti-ICE response.
Fifty-one percent of respondents approved of Trump on that issue.
A large majority, 60%, said they believed Democratic politicians had encouraged resistance to ICE officers performing their job, and only 43% said they supported politicians encouraging that resistance. Fifty-seven percent said they opposed politicians encouraging resistance.
The respondents were polled after the lethal shooting of Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse and anti-ICE agitator who interrupted federal agents while armed with a gun. Respondents could have also known about the lethal shooting of Renee Good, who blocked ICE agents with her vehicle and swerved into one agent after being confronted.
