A recent survey by the Pew Research Center found that only 38 percent of Americans think the initial decision to use military force was right. Fifty-nine percent think it was wrong. Only 37 percent of Americans approve of Trump’s handling of the conflict, while 61 percent of Americans disapprove. Only 18 percent strongly approve of Trump’s handling of the war, while 44 percent strongly disapprove.
