Media personality <strong>Tucker Carlson<\/strong> called the attacks \u201cabsolutely disgusting and evil,\u201d warning they could reshape Trump\u2019s political base. Popular podcaster <strong>Tim Pool<\/strong> also criticized the move, while MAGA influencers Keith and Kevin Hodge accused Trump of betraying his voters, saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPresident Trump has completely LIED to his voters, backstabbed our country, and has disgraced his legacy beyond repair at this point\u2014the biggest fall from grace I have ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Americans Oppose Ground Troops in Iran<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The debate over deploying U.S. troops on the ground remains heated. Trump himself has said no decision has been made regarding a potential ground operation to secure Iran\u2019s enriched uranium stockpiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continue reading on next page&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new <strong>poll reported by The Hill<\/strong> shows that <strong>74% of Americans oppose sending U.S. ground forces into Iran<\/strong>, while just 20% support it. Concern over escalation and memories of past Middle East conflicts appear to weigh heavily on public opinion. Lawmakers remain split: some push for stronger military action, while others warn it could spark a broader war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trump\u2019s Approval Ratings Stay Divided<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A recent <strong>Fox News poll<\/strong> shows Americans remain polarized over Trump\u2019s overall performance. Nearly all Democrats (<strong>97%<\/strong>) disapprove of his presidency, while Republicans give him an <strong>87% approval rating<\/strong>. Opinions are split on key issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Immigration:<\/strong> 60% disapprove of ICE, 42% approve<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Border security:<\/strong> 52% approve, 48% disapprove<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Top national concerns:<\/strong> 50% cite cost of living, 18% government spending, 10% jobs, smaller percentages cite income inequality, tariffs, or taxes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the controversy, the White House points out that Trump\u2019s approval rating, <strong>43.3%<\/strong>, remains higher than Barack Obama (42.5%) and George W. Bush (38.7%) at a similar stage in their second terms\u2014despite what officials describe as \u201cmuch tougher media coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the Iran conflict continues to dominate headlines, Trump\u2019s choices and the nation\u2019s response could have a lasting impact on his political future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What do you think about Donald Trump\u2019s handling of the situation in Iran?
