A Reuters/Ipsos poll shows that a significant majority of Americans believe the U.S. president should comply with federal court decisions, despite criticism from President Trump's administration. The study highlights public opinion on Trump's immigration policies and his overall approval ratings.

The survey, which concluded on Sunday, found 82% agree that the president should follow court rulings. Notably, 76% of Republicans support Trump's controversial deportation measures, even after a court halt. This dichotomy illustrates ongoing concerns over presidential power versus judicial authority.

Despite mixed approval ratings in different areas, Trump scores highest on immigration, with nearly half of respondents backing his actions. Economic and foreign policy ratings are notably lower, reflecting varied public sentiment toward Trump's leadership. The poll captured opinions from 1,030 individuals with a 3% margin of error.
