New polling shows that a majority of U.S. voters support President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles.
A survey conducted Monday by RMG Research among 1,000 registered voters found that 52% either “strongly” or “somewhat” approve of Trump’s move to send troops in response to the ongoing street protests.
Meanwhile, 42% said they disapprove of the deployment, and 7% remain undecided, the Daily Signal first reported.
Riots erupted in Los Angeles on Friday in response to Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, prompting President Trump to initially deploy 2,000 National Guard troops, with an additional 2,000 sent later. The unrest continued into Monday night, resulting in the arrest of over 100 rioters.
