More than half of those Americans who supported Donald Trump for president in 2024 don’t think the U.S. military should get involved in the conflict between Iran and Israel.
A new The Economist/YouGov poll conducted on June 13-16 found that 53% of Trump voters said the U.S. should not join the war, versus just 19% who said the U.S. military should. Sixty percent of all Americans surveyed agreed that the U.S. should not get involved.
The poll also found that 63 percent of Trump voters said the U.S. should “engage in negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program” while just 18% said the U.S. should not (in total, 56% said the U.S. should talk to Iran).
That result mirrors other recent polling on negotiations with Iran which found that Republicans support talks and comes amid an increasingly bitter battle between those pushing for war with Iran and Trump’s most loyal supporters — including MAGA stars like Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson — who are furious that the president didn’t stop Israel from launching its attack on Iran last week and is apparently considering U.S. military involvement.From Your Site Articles
