The Brief

    • About 1 in 3 Americans support the war in Iran, according to a recent survey conducted by Reuters.
    • It’s the lowest approval rating Reuters has reported since the war began.
    • What’s more, a whopping 69% of the people surveyed said the president hasn’t made his goals clear.

A recent poll conducted by Reuters found that one in three Americans support the war in Iran, the lowest rating Reuters’ has reported since the conflict began. 

Dig deeper:

The poll surveyed 1,248 U.S. adults between July 24- July 26.

Approval ratings for the war have been below 40% since it began, according to Reuters data. 

This latest dataset also showed 69% of Americans – which included four in 10 Republicans – think President Donald Trump hasn’t clearly outlined what the goal of the war was.

By the numbers:

Big picture view:

The University of Maryland conducted its own poll that had similar sentiments to those surveyed by Reuters.  

The university surveyed 1,019 U.S. adults between July 17, 2026, and July 20, 2026. 

More than half (52%) of all respondents said the U.S. should end the war in Iran right now and any unachieved objectives should be pursued diplomatically. 

What's more, the House last week narrowly passed a resolution to halt U.S. military action in Iran, sending a warning to Trump for the second time as the war has escalated and the future of the conflict is increasingly uncertain.

Though the votes forced by Democrats are largely symbolic, they are meant as a strong signal to the Republican president that his support on Capitol Hill is chipping away as the war drags on and lawmakers in both parties have questioned his administration’s endgame.
