CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten on Tuesday said recent polling among traditional U.S. allies shows how the “chickens are coming home to roost” for Donald Trump, amid a lack of global support for his Iran war. The reason for the limited backing is “really simple,” Enten told “News Central” anchor John Berman. “The people in those countries hate, hate, hate the U.S. military action in Iran,” he noted, pointing to net approval ratings of -27 in Canada, -73 in Japan and -34 in the United Kingdom. “Key U.S. allies, the people in those countries, absolutely despise the U.S. military action in Iran,” he continued. The favorable view of the U.S. in 2025 under Trump versus 2024 under former President Joe Biden is down among 79% of residents across 24 countries surveyed, he noted.
