Americans are divided in their opinions of President Donald Trump’s travel ban, a new HuffPost/YouGov poll finds, with the split falling largely along partisan lines.
A 48 percent plurality of Americans approve of Trump’s executive order banning travel for people from seven Muslim-majority countries ? Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen ? for 90 days, and suspending the admission of refugees for 120 days, while 44 percent disapprove. Intensity is nearly equal on both sides, with 33 percent strongly approving, and 34 percent strongly disapproving.
Views on implementation of the ban are also divided, with 41 percent saying the government has done a somewhat or very good job carrying it out, and 38 percent that the government’s handling of it has been not very good or not good at all.
"Over 100,000 visas have been revoked as a result of President Trump’s ban on travel from seven predominantly Muslim countries, an attorney for the government revealed in Alexandria federal court Friday."
