Poll: Support for Trump Iran Policy

Red State reports the findings of a recent Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll. The news about our involvement with Iran is good.

Seventy-four percent of voters say the U.S. is currently winning over Iran, while 54% believe the country has the advantage in negotiations.

According to the poll, conducted April 23-26, 2026, among 2,745 registered voters, 52% of respondents support U.S. military airstrikes on Iran, while 54% say those strikes were justified.

The survey found that 78% of voters believe Trump was right to agree to a temporary ceasefire with Iran. At the same time, 57% approve of the administration's decision to impose a blockade on ships heading to Iran, signaling majority support for combining military pressure with strategic restraint.

Apparently most Americans recognize the wisdom of this adage. "If a group or nation says they seek your death, believe them and act accordingly."
