A Quantus survey has revealed that 47 per cent of Americans approve of the US’s Operation Midnight Hammer on Iran while 36 per cent disapprove, with approval strongest among Republicans and disapproval among Democrats. But the strike has impacted Donald Trump’s approval rating only marginally, giving a short-term boost on key aspects of foreign policy. The Quantus poll, conducted between June 23 and 25 among 1000 registered voters, showed that Trump’s approval slipped slightly to 47 per cent, down from 48 per cent. His disapproval rating rose 1 point to 50 per cent, giving him a net approval of -3 points, down from -2 points earlier this month, but still within the poll’s ±3 per cent margin of error.Another poll, the latest poll by Quinnipiac conducted between June 22 and 24 among 979 self-identified registered voters, showed a more positive result for Trump, with his approval rating at 41 per cent, a 3-point increase from the previous survey earlier this month. His disapproval rating remains unchanged at 54 per cent, which falls within the poll’s margin of error of ±3.1 percentage points.American Pulse Research and Polling conducted a poll among 633 registered voters from June 23 to June 25, showing Trump with a net approval of +1, with 50 per cent approving and 49 per cent disapproving, a lead within the poll’s margin of error of ±3.9 per cent.On the specific question of Trump’s handling of the Israel-Iran conflict, Trump received his strongest numbers yet: 60 per cent of voters approve, with just 25 per cent disapproving, according to Quantus. That includes 59 per cent of independents, and a majority support across suburban (59 per cent) and rural voters (72 per cent).The Emerson College Polling survey released Friday found 45 per cent of respondents approved of the job Trump was doing as president, while 46 per cent disapproved. Close to 9 per cent said they were neutral on the issue or had no opinion. In this poll, close to 53 per cent believed the country was on the wrong track, compared to close to 48 per cent of respondents who said the US was headed in the right direction
