Trump approval at record low as support for Iran war falls: Reuters/Ipsos
WASHINGTON — U.S. public approval of the war with Iran fell to its lowest level since the conflict's early days, helping to hold President Donald Trump's popularity at a record low, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll that closed on Monday.

U.S. public approval of the war with Iran has plummeted to a record low, contributing to President Donald Trump's all-time low popularity, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll. The poll, which ran for four days, revealed that only 31% of Americans support U.S. military action against Iran, a significant drop from 37% in a March survey and 34% earlier this month.
The decline is primarily attributed to fewer Republican respondents backing the conflict, with 69% of Republicans now supporting the war, down from 77% in March. The war's prolonged nature has been dragging down Trump's public standing this year, and for the second consecutive survey, just 33% of respondents approved of the Republican's performance in the White House, the lowest recorded level in polls from Trump's first or second term.
An overwhelming 83% of the country believes the war will continue for an extended period, up from 80% earlier this month. The poll surveyed 1,215 U.S. adults nationwide with a margin of error of 3 percent.
