It is absolutely not the case that 60% of the population wants all non-citizens deported. On what do you base your claim?

Probably based on Trump winning the last presidential election. Which doesnt tell us if thats the only reason they voted for him or the primary, but some people just generalize every vote as such.

Check CNN polling. It’s been pretty consistent over the last year or two:
56% to 62% of Americans support the deportation of all immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, according to various surveys from late 2025 and early 2026, including data often discussed in connection with CNN analysis and other outlets.
Your original claim:
> It’s understood ~60-ish percent of the pop want all aliens deported not only criminal aliens
Your "evidence":
> 56% to 62% of Americans support the deportation of all immigrants living in the U.S. illegally [emphasis added]
You do realize that the polling does not support your original claim, right? That "illegally" bit is rather critical and, notably, missing in your original statement.
The subject is people who entered illegally or have remained past their visas. Illegal aliens under federal law. Outside of kooks, no one wants to deport legal residents. They may want to limit some form of migration but that’s not the question and that’s not what ICE are concerned with. It’s not even in their scope in any way.
