What is clear from multiple recent surveys is that a majority of Americans disapprove of U.S. military action in Iran and many question Trumpâs judgment on use of force. For example, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found just about 27% of Americans supported the strikes on Iran, with a higher share expressing disapproval, and a CNN poll showed a wide partisan divide in views on the conflict.

However, no major mainstream polling organization has reported that 80% of Americans believe the Iran conflict was launched specifically to distract from Epstein-related issues.
