Blue-State Residents Change Their Minds–Now They Agree With TRUMP

Many people in deep blue New York say they support a wall along the southern border, even as the state struggles to absorb the tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who have descended upon it since last year.

According to a Siena College Survey issued this week, 41% of people living in New York State indicated they support building a wall along the whole southern border of the United States with Mexico.

Even in New York City, 38% of people said they agree with building a wall along the border.

The study found that half of the people in New York said they would be against a wall along the whole southern border.

The border wall was one of the most important things that former President Trump worked on, but on his very first day in office, President Biden stopped all work on the wall.

The poll also asked about the black market for drugs and the economic effects of letting in so many illegal immigrants.

A poll found that about 38% of New Yorkers think that most of the illegal drugs traveling into the country are brought in by refugees who are currently making their way into the country.

Even more, 42%, stated that refugees take more resources than what they give back in economic action or taxes.

According to the study, about 31% stated that many people who want to move to the United States are “potentially dangerous criminals.”

However, over 35% of respondents stated they thought a large number of those attempting to enter the country “simply seek free hand-outs through our government or people and don’t want to work.”

Over 110,000 migrants have entered New York City since the previous year, and 60,000 of them are still being accommodated on public funds, prompting authorities to create more shelters for the destitute.

This week, during a town hall meeting, Democratic Mayor Eric Adams declared, “This problem is going to destroy New York City. Every month, 10,000 people come here… Every neighborhood in this city will be affected.”

Because of the immigration situation, Adams said that the budget would be cut by billions of dollars. All city departments will have to cut their spending by 5% in November and even 15% by the spring of next year.

Beyond the $1.2 billion that the city has spent so far on the refugees, up to $5 billion is expected to be spent.

Since then, Biden’s Dept. of Homeland Security has given $140 million in government money to New York City to help with the migrant problem, but Adams has said that more money is needed to get things under control.

This past week, the Siena College Poll questioned 800 people who live in New York state. Plus or minus 3.8 percentage points represents the margin of error.
