US Support for Iran War Falls as Presidential Approval Remains at Record Low

Support among Americans for military action against Iran has fallen to 31%, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll, while President Donald Trump’s approval rating remains at a record low.

The survey also found that a large majority expects the war to continue for an extended period. Public concern is being shaped by casualties, energy prices, inflation and uncertainty about the conflict’s objectives.

Polls are snapshots rather than forecasts, but sustained opposition can narrow the political room available for escalation. The administration’s ability to explain its strategy and demonstrate progress will be central to maintaining public support.
