<h1>Border security strength shapes second-term approval despite weakness on the economy among independents and other voters.</h1> Border security and crime are the administration's strongest second-term issues, with immigration approval above overall job approval despite concerns that enforcement has 'gone too far.' Economic approval is lower than overall job approval and particularly weak among independents, contrasting with higher economic ratings in the prior term. Trade and health care rank among the lowest-rated issues, and foreign-policy approval, including on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, has slipped modestly, producing an approval profile defined by issue-specific strengths and partisan variation.
