'''MAGA voters overwhelmingly support US strikes on Iranian military: poll.'''
By Ryan King. June 18, 2025.
{{Cquote|An overwhelming number of self-described “MAGA Republicans” would back US strikes against Iranian military outposts and other infrastructure amid Israel’s military campaign against the theocratic regime, a new poll found.
A whopping 65% of “MAGA Republicans” would back strikes on Iran, compared to a paltry 19% opposed, which even eclipses the support for such military action among more traditional Republicans, according to a J.L. Partners survey shared exclusively with The Post.
By contrast, self-described “traditional” Republicans would back strikes against Iran 51% to 28%. Meanwhile, Republican voters writ large would support the US government launching strikes on Iran by 58% to 25%, with 17% neutral or unsure, per the poll.
“This poll makes clear: the Republican base is not isolationist. They back forceful U.S. and Israeli action to stop Iran, and see Israel’s fight as America’s fight,” James Johnson, co-founder of the New York-based J.L. Partners, assessed in a statement.

'''MAGA Voters Back Trump On Iran and Reject Isolationism.'''
By Marc A. Thiessen. ''The Washington Post''. June 22, 2025. ''American Enterprise Institute''.
{{Cquote|...A new poll from the Ronald Reagan Institute, taken just before the U.S. and Israel launched military strikes on Iran, shows that 90 percent of self-identified MAGA Republicans say that “preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon is important to U.S. security” — including 74 percent who say doing so matters “a great deal.”
Only 8 percent disagreed.

'''CNN Data Guru Embarrasses Tucker Carlson With Iran Polls.'''
Civil War Loser.
Corbin Bolies. Media Reporter, Jun. 24 2025.
{{Cquote|CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten revealed on Tuesday how Republicans felt about President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities—and Tucker Carlson came out the ultimate loser.
Enten told CNN News Central‘s John Berman that, in an average of a CNN/SSRS poll and a Reuters/Ipsos poll, 76 percent of Republicans approved of the U.S.’ intervention, a walloping defeat for Carlson’s isolationist side of the MAGA civil war. Only about 18 percent of Republicans disapproved, Enten said.
"That is a bit higher than Donald Trump’s disapproval rating within the Republican Party, but overall, Republicans are with Donald Trump on this,” Enten said. “Tucker Carlson be darned, the bottom line is he does not speak for the majority of the Republican base. The majority of the Republican base is with Donald Trump."

'''85% of US Republicans back strikes on Iran — poll.'''
25 June 2025.
{{Cquote|A large majority of US Republicans — 85% — back the US strikes against Iran, according to a CBS News poll.
A majority of 87% of Democrats and 64% of Independents disapprove of the strikes, the poll says.
Overall, 56% of respondents disapprove and 44% approve.
The survey says so-called MAGA Republicans overwhelmingly back the strikes, with 94% in favor and only six percent opposed, but the report does not say how it defined that group.

'''Most Trump Voters Agree: Hamas Is To Blame for Suffering in Gaza. Eighty-one percent of respondents also say the US should maintain strong support for Israel, a new poll found.'''
Jameson Mitrovich. August 28, 2025.
{{Cquote|President Donald Trump's voters overwhelmingly agree that Israel does not bear responsibility for any suffering in Gaza, according to a new poll from the Vandenberg Coalition and TargetPoint.
Fifty-six percent of those voters said that Hamas, after "launching a brutal attack on Israel, stealing international aid from the Palestinian people, and shielding itself behind civilians in Gaza," is to blame, while only 10 percent named Israel as the cause.
Thirteen percent of respondents blamed the United Nations for not allowing enough aid into Gaza and letting Hamas steal aid from the Palestinian people, while another 13 percent said the United States bears responsibility over its support for Israel. Eight percent of those surveyed blamed Arab nations like Egypt and Jordan.
Eighty-one percent of respondents said they believe Israel has a right to defend itself and that the United States should maintain its strong support for the Jewish state. While support for Israel among Trump's voters has remained consistently high since the poll's first edition in June 2025 and has never fallen below 80 percent, this most recent poll indicates that Trump's voters are skeptical of the mainstream narrative surrounding aid in Gaza.
The poll results also fly in the face of recent statements from self-described "MAGA" voices like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) and Tucker Carlson.
