Trump approval at record low as support for Iran war falls: Reuters/Ipsos

U.S. public approval of the war with Iran has reached a record low, contributing to President Donald Trump's own popularity hitting an all-time low, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll. The poll, conducted over four days, revealed that only 31% of Americans support military action against Iran, a drop from 37% in a March poll and 34% earlier this month. The decline is largely attributed to a decrease in support among self-identified Republicans, with just 69% now backing the conflict, compared to 77% in March.
The ongoing war has been dragging down Trump's public standing this year, with just 33% of respondents approving of his performance in the White House, marking the lowest level in recent polls from his first and second terms. Furthermore, 83% of the country believes the war will continue for an extended period, up from 80% earlier this month.
In total, the Reuters/Ipsos poll surveyed 1,215 U.S. adults nationwide, with a margin of error of 3 percent.
