President Trump says his immigration policy may be too extreme

Donald Trump gives his border policy high marks, but acknowledges a cost to immigration enforcement reaching people with good jobs. That distinction sits at the center of Christine Sloan's CBS New York report on his post-midterm 60 Minutes interview.

Trump reflects on the people caught up in enforcement while continuing to defend other parts of his approach. "I think I got an A-plus for closing up the border. I get very high marks for getting the bad ones out," he says.

Sloan follows those remarks with a response from New Jersey Representative Rob Menendez Jr., who criticizes the administration's policies and calls for Stephen Miller's firing. The report puts Trump's qualification beside a demand for a change in personnel, rather than an announced change in immigration policy.

The Short reached roughly 80,000 views in its first day, far beyond CBS New York's usual start for that format.

Immigration is only the opening subject. Sloan also covers Democratic pressure on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the Iran war, including Hakeem Jeffries' support for an impeachment resolution. A separate CBS New York report devoted to that effort also drew an unusually large first-day audience.

The immigration report drew far more first-day views than a usual CBS New York Short. Its separate report on efforts to impeach Hegseth also had a strong start among regular videos.
