Democrats Choose IRS EPA Over ICE Pew Poll says

82 of Liberal Democrats view Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) unfavorably Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. Republicans and Democrats have diametrically opposing views of the Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) and in the biggest contrast 65 of Democrats have a favorable" view of the IRS while 72 have an unfavorable view of ICE according to the latest Pew Research Center Survey. Many Democrats nationwide have lined up to call for abolishing ICE though it appears to be a political statement and not one they would like to vote on in Congress. AAnd according to the latest national survey by the Pew Research Center conducted July 11-15 among 1007 adults the differences over the agency are particularly stark between Liberal Democrats and Conservative Republicans .
  • A large majority of Liberal Democrats 82 view Immigration & Customs Enforcement unfavorably
  • while 53 of Liberal Democrats view the agency very unfavorably
  • 60 of Conservative Democrats feel unfavorable about ICE
  • with 35 of Moderate Democrats holding a very unfavorable opinion of the Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE)
Nearly 8-in-10 conservative Republicans (77) view ICE favorably with 40 expressing a very favorable opinion. Among moderate and liberal Republicans views are less positive (62 give ICE a favorable rating including 29 who say they view it very favorably).
  • More men view ICE favorably (49) than unfavorably (41).
  • Among women more have an unfavorable (53) than favorable (40) opinion of the agency.
In a weird realigning of political favorites Democrats have now moved to embrace the FBI CIA and even the Internal Revenue Service while condemning Immigration & Customs Enforcement according to Pew.
  • 65 of Democrats view the IRS favorably
  • irs.png49 of Republicans view the IRS favorably.
Even odder the party that has a history of criticizing the FBI and CIA now seem to have embraced both.
  • Some 77 of Democrats have a favorable view of the FBI and
  • 63 have a favorable view of the CIA.
Each of those agencies have been involved in accusations against the Trump Administration and critical of the president. And his views appear to drive how Republicans and Democrats look at the agencies. Republicans for example like ICE.
  • 72 have a favorable view of the agency enforcing President Trumps initiative to deport criminal illegals
  • while less than 50 have a favorable view of the IRS and the FBI which is under fire from Trump for favoring Hillary Rodham Clinton in the 2016 elections.
Also while President Trump has urged the Environmental Protection Agency to slash costly regulations Democrats have turned on it. Once their favorite agency now 53 Democrats have a favorable view of the EPA which is slightly less than the percentage of Republicans who used to hate the EPA.
