No source directly measures whether 70-80% of Americans opposed the entry of people who had come into the country, so the claim's figure is not corroborated.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… Yeah, also, you doing the bending. Okay, yeah, dude, like, listen, the dude shouldn't be here. I'm glad he's fucking gone, and we got about 20 million more we gotta do the same thing. Look, man, y'all wanted all these people to come in, okay, and that was against the 70 to 80% of the country didn't want those people.

REAL AF with Andy Frisella · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. Gallup, as cited by LSE (Oct 2026), reports that 79% of Americans viewed immigration as a good thing for the country in 2025, which is inconsistent with a 70-80% majority opposing the entry of immigrants.[3]
Contradicts. A 2026 Gallup poll found 58% opposed deporting all immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, with 39% favoring it, which runs against the claim that 70-80% did not want these people here.[4]
Contradicts. A October 2026 Data for Progress poll found 67% of voters support the U.S. having a refugee program, with majorities across party lines.[5]
Context. AP-NORC (Sept 2026) shows 39% approve and 60% disapprove of Trump's handling of immigration, which measures presidential approval, not opinion on entry of immigrants.[1]
Context. Marist (Feb 2026) found 65% say ICE actions have gone too far, a measure of enforcement rather than opinion on immigrants' entry.[2]
