Support for President Donald Trump’s war with Iran has dipped to the same levels as unpopular wars like Vietnam and Iraq, according to a new poll.

A survey released by ABC-The Washington Post-Ipsos shows support for the ongoing conflict in Iran is continuing to fall, with six in 10 Americans calling the military action a mistake and just 2 in 10 calling the campaign a success.

The IR cannot be allowed to hold the world hostage to ensure their continued reign of terror. This should have been done decades ago.

Yeah. The little bastards in our learing centers were really looking forward to get their asses nuked by the Iranians.

An ABC-The Washington Post narrative poll reported on by Yahoo, would you expect it and them to say anything else.

No truth was told in either

But we’re “winning,” despite not achieving a single stated objective and not having an exit plan.

At least we spent tens of billions, scuttled a carrier, lost a bunch of aircraft and killed lots of people on both sides - including 15 American troops and 150+ little girls.

It was debacle, as is this.

90%+ of my social circle voted for DJT and maybe 20% of those support this
