Polls

Headline USA - A new poll found that six in ten Americans now have an unfavorable view of Israel. Young Americans have a negative view of Israel. 

The Pew survey released on Tuesday reported that overall, 60% said they have an unfavorable view of Israel. In 2022, only 42% of Americans held negative views of Israel. 

There was a sharp divide between Democrats and Republicans. 41% of Republicans have an unfavorable view of Israel; that number is double with Democrats. There was also a large split between younger and older Americans. 70% of Americans under 50 had an unfavorable view of Israel, including 57% of Republicans. 

Newsweek - Vice President JD Vance's approval rating has fallen sharply, hitting what CNN data analyst Harry Enten says is the lowest point for any vice president at this stage in office... Enten showed that Vice President Kamala Harris was at minus 13 points at a comparable moment. Mike Pence stood at minus 7, Joe Biden had a net positive of 4 points and Dick Cheney had the significantly higher net approval rating of plus 37.

While he allowed that vice presidents in general appeared to be becoming less popular over time, the trend did not fully explain the depth of Vance's decline.  "JD Vance is not doing too hot to trot at this point," Enten said, noting that the former U.S. senator from Ohio had started his vice presidency in positive territory.  Vance's net approval rating has dropped from plus 3 points to minus 18. "That is a 21-point swing in the wrong direction," Enten said, adding, "Down he goes."

Newsweek -  U.S. President Donald Trump's approval rating has fallen since he announced a two-week ceasefire deal with Iran on Tuesday after threatening to annihilate the country's infrastructure, according to a new poll.

The survey by Daily Mail and JL Partners, conducted on 1,000 registered voters on Wednesday, found that 43 percent of respondents approved of Trump, while 57 percent disapproved. This gave Trump a net approval rating of -14 percentage points. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Newsweek - Vance has 36 percent of the potential vote, compared with Newsom's 33 percent. The survey shows that 12 percent are undecided, and 17 percent say they would not vote.
