The latest United States-Israel-Iran war has the potential to reshape Middle East politics, with implications for US politics, including the 2026 midterm elections and US support for Israel. While President Trump’s base supports the joint US-Israel strikes, influential figures on the American right have criticized them, leading to divisions within the MAGA movement. Concerns about Israel’s influence over US foreign policy and the decision to go to war with Iran have further deepened these divides. This could impact Republican prospects in the upcoming elections, as some conservatives are even considering voting for Democrats. Recent polling shows that only about a quarter of Americans approve of Trump’s decision to go to war, raising concerns for the Republican party.
