Trump's supporters place a particularly large emphasis on border enforcement, something Harris' voters are less concerned with.
Findings from the latest Economist/YouGov poll about the new budget, treatment of people detained at the border, and Donald Trump's business interests.
Trump performs worst on inflation/prices (-26 net approval), changes to geographic names (-21), federal workforce reductions (-17), relations with Canada (-16), presidential pardons (-16), and tariffs and trade (-15).
Americans and Canadians differ sharply in their view of each country's relation to the other: Only 6% of Americans view Canada as unfriendly or an enemy, while 50% of Canadians view the U.S. this way.
Harris supporters are most likely to expect the Supreme Court's overturning of abortion rights to be important. Most Trump supporters emphasize inflation and the economy.
The survey asked about spending in 40 areas, and in none of these areas did a majority of Americans support a reduction in spending.
