A new CNN poll finds 59% of Americans disapprove of President Trump’s decision to take military action in Iran, as most say a long-term military conflict between the two nations is likely.
Most say they lack trust in Trump to make the right decisions about US use of force in Iran, with 60% saying they do not think he has a clear plan for handling the situation and 62% saying he should get congressional approval for any further military action.
