By Rasmussen Reports

 

1* Do you have a very favorable, somewhat favorable, somewhat unfavorable, or very unfavorable impression of Pete Hegseth?

 

 

2* About six weeks ago, the United States and Israel began military attacks on Iran. Based on what you know, how successful has the military operation against Iran been so far?

 

 

3* The United States recently rescued two Air Force officers after their plane had been shot down in Iran. Does the rescue of the Air Force officers make you more confident or less confident in the ability of the U.S. military to defeat Iran? Or does the rescue not make much difference in your confidence?

 

 

4* How likely is it that the United States will send ground troops to invade Iran?
