Hundreds of thousands of Americans took to the streets on Saturday across the nation to oppose the heinous Trump/GOP policy of separating immigrant/asylum-seeking children from their parents on our southern border. They wanted to make it clear that policy was un-American and unacceptable -- and to demand the families be re-united.
The people who marched and demonstrated were representing the views of a significant majority of Americans. Only 26% support Trump's horrendous policy, while 57% oppose it.
Those results are to be found in the latest Economist / YouGov Poll -- done between June 24th and 26th of a national sample of 1,500 adults, with a 3.1 point margin of error.
It is not necessary to separate children from their parents. We had a very successful program until Trump stopped it. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-family-detention-alternative_us_5b2d4731e4b0321a01d1002e
