The Iran war is causing concern among President Donald Trump's base, with some believing that his base will stick with him over the war. However, new polling suggests that 21% of Republicans and 24% of 2024 Trump voters are less than enthusiastic about the war, compared to 17% who approve of Trump's handling of Iran. These numbers represent a significant increase in support for the president compared to the general public's disapproval of the Iraq war two decades ago. The author suggests that while there are still some devoted supporters of the president, these numbers could cause significant disappointments. The article also notes that a new poll by Strength in Numbers-Verasight found that 24% believe the war in Iran was not a good use of taxpayer dollars, and that the cost of gas rose to 31% per gallon.
