"Leavitt's post claimed that Americans overwhelmingly support Operation Epic Fury, but the polls she referenced primarily reflect the views of MAGA Republicans, not the broader public."
"The Washington Post found that while a plurality of Americans back U.S. action against Iran, approval has risen only as victories mount, and many prefer to end the strikes."
"Critics highlighted that Leavitt's links showed support mainly from MAGA Republicans, arguing that her claims misrepresent the views of the American public as a whole."
Karoline Leavitt claimed that Americans overwhelmingly support Operation Epic Fury against Iran, citing polls that primarily reflect MAGA Republican views. The White House's data indicates 80-90% support, but this is limited to MAGA followers. Other polls show a more nuanced perspective, with a plurality of Americans supporting U.S. action but preferring an end to the conflict. Critics argue that Leavitt misrepresents public opinion by excluding Democrats and Independents, leading to accusations of dishonesty regarding the level of support for the operation.
