Quick Summary

A survey by AAPIVote and AP-NORC shows declining trust in President Trump among Asian-Americans due to economic difficulties and issues related to immigration enforcement under his administration. Factors such as ICE raids, visa denials, detentions, and deportations are cited as significant contributors to this loss of confidence. Karthick Ramakrishnan, founder of AAPIVote, notes that while the types of concerns remain consistent, their severity has increased among Asian-American respondents.
