Trump administration's first "self-deportation" flight takes off from...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Also on Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court gave the Trump administration the legal right to revoke legal protections for nearly 350,000 Venezuelan immigrants who were enrolled in the Temporary Protected Status program -- a decades-old designation given to migrants by the federal government allowing them to stay in the U.S. temporarily because of natural or political crises in their home countries.
30% : Even though President Trump has said that people who participate may one day return to the country legally, the details of the program don't indicate if participating immigrants would be exempted from the 10-year ban.
24% : During the presidential campaign, President Trump promised mass deportations but has reportedly grown frustrated that immigration agents have not been able to deport enough people to stay on pace to meet the administration's goal of 1 million removals for the year.
18% : At the time, Trump, years from launching his presidential campaign, commented on Romney's proposal: "He had a crazy policy of self-deportation, which was maniacal.
6% : It sounded as bad as it was, and he lost all of the Latino vote," Trump said after Romney lost the election to President Obama.
