Trump admits his mass deportation policy was ‘too tough’

Donald Trump told CBS’s “60 Minutes” that his policy of deporting undocumented immigrants may have been “too tough.” The interview excerpt, recorded after the Republican Party’s heavy midterm election loss, was released Sunday ahead of its television broadcast. The administration’s drive to deport millions of migrants has drawn widespread criticism, even as some Americans support tighter security at the southern border. On Friday, Trump appointed Stephen Miller, architect of the hardline policy, as his chief of staff, signaling a fightback after the election defeat.
