Americans Boost Trump’s Gaza Conflict Approval, New Poll Finds

A Reuters/Ipsos poll, conducted on October 15-16, 2025, shows that more American adults approve of former President Donald Trump’s handling of the Gaza conflict compared to President Joe Biden’s current approach. The survey revealed that 45% of respondents approved of Trump’s past actions concerning the conflict. Conversely, only 35% approved of Biden’s ongoing management of the situation. This constitutes a 10 percentage point difference in approval ratings between the two leaders on this specific foreign policy matter.

The nationwide poll involved 1,000 adult Americans and had a credibility interval of plus or minus 3 percentage points. Analysts propose that the increased approval for Trump could be linked to a perceived stronger leadership or a different foreign policy stance during his presidency. President Biden has received criticism from various groups regarding his administration’s response to the continuing situation in Gaza, which is believed to have contributed to his lower approval numbers on this issue. The poll’s findings highlight the political difficulties for the incumbent president in foreign policy and could influence upcoming electoral dynamics.
