Americans Weigh In on Iran and Affordabilty in Latest Zogby Poll

In this episode, John and Jeremy Zogby analyze new political polling data on Trump’s influence, economic worries, and war sentiments shaping the election landscape.

Show Notes:
John and Jeremy Zogby discuss a new Zogby Strategies poll taken Thursday–Friday amid a week in which Trump showed strong influence over Republicans early (primary defeats of Thomas Massie and Bill Cassidy) but saw Congress reject his requests for a $1.776B “weaponization” fund, $900M for a White House ballroom, and added security funding.

The poll shows Trump at 44% approval and 54% disapproval (minus 10), with weaker ratings on the economy (40/57) and affordability (37/58).
Democrats lead the generic congressional ballot 49–42. On the Iran war, 29% support boots on the ground and 61% oppose; impact from gas costs is significant for 48%.
Top voting issues are economy/inflation (48), healthcare, immigration (19), and Iran war close behind (18), with discussion of a convergence of war and economic concerns and perceptions of reduced U.S. credibility (41 more credible, 48 less).
They also look at Democrats’ handling of a redacted 2024 campaign autopsy and broader party issues.
