Asian-Americans’ trust in Trump fading as economic woes increase, survey finds

What happened: A survey released on Monday found Asian-American and Pacific Islander voters focused on the economy and healthcare costs and increasingly disenchanted with President Donald Trump and the Republican Party ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. Why it matters: The survey says AAPI views often mirror the broader US electorate but are frequently more pronounced, in part because the community has been the object of more raids. Key numbers: Survey released Monday; midterm elections on November 3.
