According to a CBS-YouGov survey, 78% of Americans want to end the war with Iran. Most people consider it a bad deal and a strategic failure, which would benefit Iran more. This agreement is being seen as an exit plan for Trump.
Washington: The results of the ‘CBS News-YouGov’ survey, which came after the Trump administration signed the initial agreement with Iran, are a big blow to Donald Trump. According to the survey, 78% of Americans want Trump to end this war now, instead of pressuring Iran for more concessions. But according to CNN report, people are supporting this agreement of Trump administration not because it is a very good deal, but because they believe that this war has proved to be a big failure. The American people just want this crisis to end somehow.
Most people consider it a ‘bad deal’
Only 22% of those surveyed believed that “the war should continue until Iran makes further concessions.” However, Trump’s advisors denied these figures to Trump and Vice President J.D. They are presenting it as huge public support for JD Vance, but the truth is something else.
Who is benefiting?: Only 22% people believe that America will benefit from this agreement. At the same time, 37% people believe that Iran will benefit more from this.
Dissatisfaction in one’s own party: Even only 39% of the Republican Party believes that this deal is in America’s favor. That means, only 4 out of 10 people from Trump’s own party are seeing it as a success.
Strategic failure: 45% people believe that this war was a major strategic failure, while only 29% people consider it a success.
Strategic goals failed, even nuclear program did not stop
Donald Trump’s biggest objective was to stop Iran’s nuclear program forever. But *69% of Americans and 45% of Republicans* believe that this will not happen even after this agreement is implemented. An earlier Fox News poll had also revealed that even after a peace agreement, it would be difficult to stop Iran from making nuclear weapons.
Some more important results of the survey
68% people believe that this deal will not stop Iran from threatening other countries.
According to 79% people, this war has not made Iran’s rulers too soft towards America.
74% people believe that Trump’s goal of making the people of Iran safe and free could not be achieved by this war.

People are also rejecting Trump’s claims that the war has destroyed Iran’s military capability. Only 37% of Americans believe that Iran is now weaker than before the war. At the same time, more than 60% people believe that Iran is either still as powerful (38%) or has become more powerful than before (25%).
Iran has proven its dominance in the global market by showing its ability to close the Strait of Hormuz and threaten the world economy. A majority of 57% believe that the war has “created more problems than it has solved.”
Trump’s projections proved wrong, he eventually backed down
64% of people, including 54% of Republicans, believe that the war has caused more damage to the world economy than expected. CNN previously reported that the administration had taken for granted that Iran would not hesitate to close the Strait of Hormuz.
The administration had initially said that this war would last only four to six weeks, but now it has been almost four months. Two-thirds of Americans believe that the Trump administration is making this agreement because it wants to end the conflict by any means, and not because it has achieved all its goals. The world is seeing this new agreement as Trump’s exit plan to save embarrassment from an aimless war.
