Wait, That's Not What the Media Has Been Telling Us — Majority of Americans Thinks We're Winning in Iran
Bob Hoge
The drumbeat over at The New York Times is relentless — if, for some reason, you went over to their site or picked up a newspaper to peruse their coverage, you’d see that almost every one of their stories about the Iran conflict is doom and gloom and imagines that we’re going to meet a very dark fate. They prove daily, however, just how out of touch they are with the average American, and the numbers tell the tale:
A new national survey from the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll suggests that a majority of American voters support President Donald Trump's handling of the escalating tensions with Iran, with strong backing for recent military and diplomatic actions and a broad belief that the United States is winning the conflict.
A central theme emerging from the poll is a widespread perception that the United States holds the upper hand.
If you can get 74 percent of voters to agree on anything, that would be considered a huge win. But that’s exactly what the poll showed in this case:
Seventy-four percent of voters say the U.S. is currently winning over Iran, while 54% believe the country has the advantage in negotiations.
