Most Americans want new Democratic Congress to end Trump's Iran war, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds
The poll found 71% support ending the conflict and 62% favor repealing tariffs as voters press Congress to tackle living costs.
- A new Reuters/Ipsos poll completed on Monday shows 71% of Americans want Congress to pass legislation ending the conflict with Iran that President Donald Trump launched alongside Israel in February.
- Democrats won their largest majorities in the Senate and House of Representatives since 2008 in last week's midterm elections, a sharp rebuke to Trump's Republicans over high costs and the unpopular war.
- Nine in 10 respondents said cost of living issues should be a focus for Congress during its first 100 days, while 62% support an effort to repeal tariffs on imports put in place by the Trump administration.
- Some 42% of poll respondents said it would be "bad for the country" if the new Congress tried to impeach Trump, though Congressional Democrats remain divided on how aggressively to target him.
- While Trump said he would "probably" get along with Democrats, he appointed Stephen Miller, a polarizing aide who has called the Democratic Party a domestic extremist group, as White House chief of staff.
