Summary
60% of registered voters say U.S. military action against Iran was not worth it, versus 34% who say it was, even after Trump signed a memorandum of understanding with Tehran toward a longer-term peace deal.
59% are not confident Trump's Iran deal will work, and 61% still think Iran is likely to develop nuclear weapons, underscoring doubts that diplomacy or force has resolved the threat.
48% say the United States is too supportive of Israel—the highest share since Quinnipiac began asking in 2017—while only 38% call current support about right; Netanyahu is viewed unfavorably by 48% and favorably by 20%.
45% say the Iran action left the United States weaker globally, while views of Iran's position shifted from 47% weaker in April to 39% now, suggesting voters see less strategic gain from the strike.
38% approve of Trump's job performance and 55% disapprove, with his handling of Iran drawing 34% approval and 62% disapproval as Democrats lead Republicans 49% to 42% in preferences for House control.
