published<\/a><\/span> by Politico on Wednesday, respondents were asked whether the war should continue even if it led to higher costs in the United States.<\/p>\nThe results showed that the share of Trump voters who said the war should continue despite rising costs fell from 50% in May to 37% in July.<\/p>\n
At the same time, about one in five MAGA voters said the United States should end the war regardless of its economic costs.<\/p>\n
Another 37% of MAGA voters said the conflict should continue only if it does not increase costs in the United States, up eight percentage points from May.<\/p>\n
A majority of MAGA voters, 57%, said the conflict had driven up gasoline prices. That view was also widely shared across other voter groups, including those who backed former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.<\/p>\n
The survey also found that 20% of Trump voters believed gasoline prices would have risen less under a Democratic president.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, 35% said fuel prices would have increased by the same amount under a Democratic administration, while 34% said prices would have climbed even more if a Democrat had occupied the White House.<\/p>\n
The conflict in Iran has long struggled to gain broad public support in the United States, and recent opinion polls suggest public dissatisfaction with the war has intensified further.<\/p>\n
A survey conducted last week by The Economist and YouGov found that 46% of Americans believe the war will last “one year or longer” from now.<\/p>\n
Another 46% said they expected the fighting to continue for “more than one month but less than one year.”<\/p>\n
A Reuters\/Ipsos poll published last month found that only 24% of Americans believed the war with Iran was worth the tens of billions of dollars spent, the military personnel killed or wounded, the military facilities damaged or destroyed, and the energy crisis triggered by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n
Fighting between the two countries intensified again last week after the United States and Iran signed a temporary agreement aimed at reaching a final peace deal and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of global oil supplies pass.<\/p>\n
According to US Department of Defense data, Iranian attacks since the renewed escalation on July 7 have killed four US military personnel and wounded nearly 100 others.<\/p>\n
The latest casualties have brought the total number of US deaths to 17.<\/p>\n
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told members of Congress on Tuesday that the United States had spent $37.5 billion on the war with Iran.<\/p>\n
The Politico survey was conducted between July 13 and 15 among 2,061 respondents and had a margin of error of 2.2 percentage points.<\/p>\n
