WHY TRUMP IS STICKING TO THE SHUTDOWN: Poll: 8-in-10 call illegal immigration a ‘problem,’ 58% say ‘serious.’

via washingtonexaminer:

Most Americans believe that illegal immigration is a problem but are split over what to do about it, according to a new survey.

The latest Economist/YouGov.com poll found that 84 percent believe illegal immigration is a “problem” for the United States.

And of that, 58 percent called it a “somewhat serious” to “very serious problem.” Another 26 percent called it a “minor probem,” and only 10 percent said illegal immigration is “not a problem”
