Poll: Americans Overwhelmingly Oppose Trumps Strikes on Iran - Mother JonesJust one in four Americans supports the Trump administration's ongoing strikes on Iran, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Sunday.The disapproval rating was 43 percent, while 29 percent said they were not sure.
About half of respondents-including one in four Republicans-said the president was too open to using military force. The poll surveyed 1,282 US adults starting on Saturday, following news breaking of the strikes.
Even before the attacks, Trump's handling of Iran was unpopular. Back in January, a Reuters/Ipsos found that only 33 percent of Americans approved of (his) policy with Iran, while 43 percent disapproved.
