More tend to agree with key Trump policies than oppose, according to a survey from the Economist/YouGov.
For example, the survey asked respondents if they agree with ending the automatic granting of citizenship to children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants. More support that policy than oppose — 45 percent supporting and 42 percent opposing. Predictably, most Republicans, 66 percent, support it, while most Democrats, 61 percent, oppose.

The survey also found that a plurality, 46 percent, support the Trump policy of drilling on federal land. Another 35 percent oppose it. While independents are split 40-40 on that issue, most Republicans, 73 percent, support it, while most Democrats, 54 percent, oppose.
There is majority support on banning transgender athletes from playing on women’s sports teams — 61 percent supporting and 25 percent opposing. Among those who support it, 50 percent support it “strongly.” Interestingly, Democrats are split on this issue with 40 percent supporting and 40 percent opposing. Most Republicans, 87 percent, and independents, 56 percent, support banning transgender athletes from playing on women’s sports teams.
