Trump's deportation program nets positive approval amid contrasting views over its scope, CBS News poll finds

Views of the Trump administration's deportation program headed into this weekend with positive net approval from Americans, including continued strong backing from the Republican base — but also heavily shaped by contrasting views about which people, and how many, are being targeted for deportation.

A slight majority feel the administration's deportation efforts are prioritizing people they believe are dangerous criminals. Those who say this are very supportive of the program, and feel the program is making people in the U.S. safer. 

But if people don't think it is dangerous criminals who are the focus of the deportation effort, support drops dramatically.
