Republican voters

Former President Donald Trump continues to receive his strongest support from Republican voters on immigration, according to a new AP-NORC poll, with respondents expressing greater confidence in his handling of border security than his approach to the economy or rising tensions involving Iran.

The survey highlights that immigration remains one of Trump’s most politically advantageous issues as he continues to shape the Republican Party’s agenda. A significant majority of Republican respondents rated Trump’s immigration policies favorably, reinforcing the belief among his supporters that he remains the party’s strongest voice on border enforcement and illegal immigration.

While Trump also earned positive ratings on economic matters, the poll found that Republican confidence in his economic leadership was slightly lower than his approval on immigration. Economic concerns, including inflation, government spending, and job creation, remain top priorities for many Americans, but immigration continues to dominate the political conversation among Republican voters.

The poll also revealed comparatively weaker confidence in Trump’s handling of foreign policy issues related to Iran. Although many Republicans continue to support his “America First” approach, fewer respondents ranked his performance on Iran as highly as they did his immigration policies. The findings suggest that domestic issues, particularly border security, remain more influential than international affairs in shaping Republican voter sentiment.

Immigration has become one of the defining issues of Trump’s political career. Throughout his campaigns and presidency, he consistently advocated for stricter border enforcement, increased deportations of undocumented immigrants, and expanded barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border. These policies continue to resonate with a large portion of the Republican base.

Political analysts say the survey underscores the importance of immigration in the upcoming election cycle. As candidates debate issues ranging from inflation and national security to international conflicts, border security is expected to remain a central theme in Republican messaging.

The AP-NORC poll reflects broader trends within the Republican electorate, showing that voters continue to prioritize immigration over many other policy areas. The results may influence campaign strategies as Trump and other Republican leaders seek to strengthen support ahead of future elections.

Although the economy and global security remain major concerns for Americans, the latest polling suggests that immigration continues to be the issue on which Trump enjoys his greatest political advantage among Republican voters.
