Of the respondents, 46% said the border has become less secure compared to 2019. Meanwhile, 15% believed border security has improved while 33% thought it remained the same.

Fox News also made mention of its 2018 poll, which they conducted about 18 months following then-President Donald Trump’s inauguration. It found that 28% thought the border improved, which is higher than the 17% who thought it was worse.

The new survey also found that 51% of the respondents did not approve of Biden’s performance with regards to border security. In contrast, 35% approved it.

Fox News conducted the survey via telephone calls from April 18 to 21. It had a 3-percentage-point margin of error.

The poll also found that 86% of Republicans felt highly concerned about the issue of illegal immigration. With regards to the treatment of illegal aliens, 53% of them view it as a concern. Meanwhile, 67% overall felt concerned about it.
Also, 77% of Democrats felt concerned about the treatment of illegal immigrants. Fifty-one percent of them also felt concerned regarding illegal immigration.

Meanwhile, when it comes to the president’s performance, 88% of Republican respondents did not approve of it, while 7% of them did. In contrast, 64% of Democrats approve of it while 18% didn’t.

When it comes to border security, 75% of Republican respondents say it has become worse than in 2019. Only 17% of the Democrat respondents believe the same thing.

Regarding who caused the spike in illegal immigration, overall 56% thought it was “mostly” because of Biden as president. Among Republicans, 84% believed this, while 32% of Democrats thought this as well.

Conversely, 23% of Democrat respondents said Biden doesn’t deserve the blame for the border crisis. Only 4% of Republican respondents, however, felt this way.

The Fox News survey is not the only one that reflected discontent with the president.
