A Reuters/Ipsos poll finds most Americans expect the Iran war to destabilize the Middle East and worsen gas prices, with only 35% approving the conflict. Fifty percent expect U.S. military action to destabilize the region, triple the 17% predicting stability. Fifty-eight percent expect gas prices to worsen. Trump says negotiations are underway, but Iran denies direct talks. The war, launched with Israel in late February, has cost $37.5 billion and killed 18 U.S. service members. For the first time, voters favor Democrats over Republicans on handling war and terrorism.
