<\/a><\/figure>\n\nLatinos\u2019 assessment of President Trump\u2019s job performance is lower than that of the U.S. public. Only 22% of Latinos say they approve of the way Trump is handling his job as president, while 69% say they disapprove. By comparison, among the general U.S. public<\/a>, 38% say they approve of the job Trump is doing as president while 55% disapprove.<\/p>\n\n Latinos\u2019 views of President Trump\u2019s job performance vary greatly by party affiliation and by whether they are satisfied with the country\u2019s direction. A majority of Latinos who identify with or lean toward the Republican Party approve of the president\u2019s job performance (59%), compared with just 8% of those who identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party. In addition, about half (49%) of Latinos who say they are satisfied with the country\u2019s direction approve of Trump\u2019s job performance, compared with just 7% of those who say they are dissatisfied with the direction of the country.<\/p>\n\n Differences are also seen among Hispanics by nativity and by gender. Among immigrant Hispanics, only 16% say they approve of how Trump is handling his job as president, compared with 28% among the U.S. born. In addition, only 15% of Hispanic women say they approve of the president\u2019s job performance, compared with 28% among Hispanic men.<\/p>\n\n Many of these same patterns exist among Latino registered voters. Overall, 25% of Latino voters say they approve of the president\u2019s job performance, while 70% say they disapprove.<\/p>\n\n [4.numoffset=”4″ Immigration policies were under national debate in both years. In 2010, attention centered on an Arizona law (Senate bill 1070)<\/a> that, among other provisions, allowed law enforcement officers to try to determine an individual\u2019s immigration status during a lawful stop or arrest. In 2007, Congress had been debating<\/a> an overhaul of the nation\u2019s immigration laws.]<\/p>\n\n\n Views of the impact of administration policies on Hispanics largely reflect partisan divisions among Hispanics. Fully 81% of Hispanic Democrats say Trump administration policies have been harmful to Hispanics, compared with just 36% of Hispanic Republicans who say the same.<\/p>\n\n Among U.S. Latinos, those with closer ties to immigration are more likely to say the administration\u2019s policies have been harmful. About seven-in-ten immigrant Latinos (71%) say this, compared with 63% of those born in the U.S. Among the U.S. born, second-generation Latinos, the children of immigrant parents, are more likely to view Trump administration policies as harmful to Latinos than those of the third or higher generations (67% vs. 58%).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The new Pew Research Center survey of Hispanics finds many disapprove of how President Trump is doing his job, though not all Latinos agree.
