Most Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of Israel's war on Palestine: Poll

A majority of Americans aren’t on board with Donald Trump’s approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. A new poll from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 54 percent disapprove of how he’s handling the situation, with that number soaring to 84 percent among Democrats.

The survey also revealed that only 40 percent of Americans see Israel as a close ally, while 28 percent describe the relationship as merely "friendly but not close".
