A majority of voters say President Donald Trump’s military campaign against Iran is working.
A new Rasmussen Reports survey finds 61% of likely voters believe Operation Epic Fury has been successful so far, including 35% who say it has been “very successful.”
The numbers cut against claims that the operation has fractured public opinion.
Instead, the polling shows broad engagement with the conflict. Roughly 81% of voters say they’ve been closely following developments, with nearly half — 49% — saying they’ve followed the situation “very closely.” Among that highly engaged group, support climbs to 66%.
The partisan split is real — but not absolute.
Support is strongest among Republicans, with 81% saying the operation has been successful. But the backing extends beyond the GOP base, with 56% of unaffiliated voters and 45% of Democrats also viewing the campaign as successful to this point.
Among 2024 voters, the divide sharpens.
An overwhelming 83% of Trump voters say the operation is succeeding, compared to 40% of those who backed then-Vice President Kamala Harris.
The data points to a clear trend: the operation retains strong support among Trump’s base while also drawing measurable approval beyond it.
