Some 35% of respondents think it is in a weaker position. The rest \u2060said they were not sure or that the U.S. position was about the same as before.<\/div><div>Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a preliminary deal \u200bon June 17 that would reopen oil and gas shipping lanes that were frozen by the conflict, while easing U.S.-led economic pressure on Iran.<\/div><div>The deal \u200bhas led to a rapid drop in global crude oil prices, although for most Americans the price of gasoline remains considerably higher than it was before the February 28 U.S.-Israeli strikes that started the war. Iran responded to the initial attack with strikes that shut down a fifth of the global oil trade and damaged energy facilities of \u200bU.S. regional allies.<\/div><h2>NOT WORTH THE COSTS<\/h2><div>Only 24% of Americans think the war with Iran was worth the costs, the Reuters\/Ipsos poll showed. Half of \u200bpoll respondents said the conflict was not worth it and the rest were unsure.<\/div><div>Some 63% of Americans think it unlikely that the deal Trump signed will lead to \u200clasting peace \u2060between the two countries. About half of Republicans and eight in 10 Democrats said the deal was unlikely to deliver peace. Just 18% of Americans \u2014 including 10% of Democrats and 34% of Republicans \u2014 see lasting peace as likely.<\/div><div>Trump won the 2024 presidential election after promising to reduce inflation and keep America out of costly foreign wars. His political brand has long leaned on his background as a deal-making real estate developer and reality television star.<\/div><div>Trump&#8217;s approval \u200brating on the cost of living, at \u200b22%, was near the lowest \u2060level of his presidency and below the rating of his Democratic predecessor in the White House, Joe Biden, at the end of his presidency.<\/div><h2>MIDTERMS LOOM<\/h2><div>Trump started his current term with a 47% approval rating, but his popularity has \u200bsuffered amid high rates of inflation as well as controversy over his aggressive efforts to deport people in \u200bthe country illegally, \u2060which have included deadly confrontations with pro-immigration activists.<\/div><div>His falling popularity could weigh on his Republican allies when they defend their congressional majorities in the November 3 midterm elections. The Reuters\/Ipsos poll showed that just 17% of independent registered voters said they would vote for the Republican in their district if the election were held \u2060today, compared with \u200b34% who said they would pick the Democrat.<\/div><div>The latest Reuters\/Ipsos poll showed just 37% \u200bof Americans approved of how Trump has handled immigration, the lowest of his term and down from 40% in the prior Reuters\/Ipsos poll.<\/div><div>The latest poll gathered responses from 1,262 U.S. adults \u200bnationwide and its results had a margin of error of 3 percentage points in either direction.<\/div><div><address><div><div><noscript>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" alt=\"Jason Lange\" class=\"wp-image-9\" src=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a8d647782541686b4c9068dd2dfa6f30.avif\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/noscript><\/div><div>Jason Lange<\/div><\/div><div><ul><li><span><div><svg><title>Email<\/title><\/svg><\/div><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/address><\/div><\/div><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2773\">SpaceX\u2019s wild ride is just getting started<\/a><\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2772\">Mamdani\u2019s power play, a Kennedy\u2019s TikToks.
