NEW: The Iran Trap

Six months into war with Iran, our latest poll finds a public wary of a conflict that many believe the United States is not winning, unlikely to achieve its stated objectives, and not worth the costs.

Survey of 1,000 US adults, fielded Aug 11–14. 🧵1/

New IGA poll: 56% of Americans say the US should prioritize avoiding higher prices at home, even if Iran war goals aren’t fully met. Only 22% say pursue them even if prices rise.

Guns or butter? Americans picked butter, 56% to 22%.

In our new poll that closed the night before the midterms, more than twice as many said the US should avoid higher prices at home rather than fully meet its military goals in Iran.

Biden and Trump both promised new approaches to the Middle East. But course correction is easier said than done.

Foreign policy rarely decides elections. This year, it’s hit the pocketbook: 81% of Americans in our polling say the Iran war has raised the cost of living.

Will that move votes today? @ShibleyTelhami and @RoguePollster on @PodcastNOTA 🎧
