Even Trump’s Base Opposes War with Iran

  • A YouGov-Economist poll released on June 18, 2025, found that 60% of Americans are against the United States becoming involved in Israel's conflict with Iran in the Middle East.
  • This opposition follows rising tensions marked by Israeli strikes on Iran beginning the prior Friday and increased U.S. military deployments to Middle Eastern bases.
  • The poll sampled 1,512 U.S. adults, showing that majorities of Democrats, Independents, and Republicans oppose involvement, with 56% favoring negotiations over military action.
  • NIAC President Jamal Abdi noted that recent actions by Israel's armed forces have increasingly swayed public sentiment against engaging in war, while Trump called on social media for Iran to surrender without conditions.
  • The poll's results and congressional moves to require approval before attacking Iran suggest broad public reluctance amid escalating conflict and U.S. strategic decisions.
