'Goodness gracious!' Trump warned 'chickens coming home to roost' as top allies jump ship

President Donald Trump has alienated the rest of the world, according to new polling data, and an analyst said "those chickens are coming home to roost" now that the U.S. needs allies.

The 79-year-old president authorized joint U.S.-Israeli military operations against Iran, which responded by shutting down the Strait of Hormuz and choking off the global oil supply, and Trump has been unable to pressure any nations to help reopen the crucial waterway.

"It's really simple: Thepeople in those countries hate, hate, hate the U.S. militaryaction in Iran," said CNN's Harry Enten. "What are wetalking about here? Okay, netapproval rating, U.S. militaryaction in Iran, in Canada, wayunderwater, minus-27 points. You thinkthat's low? Take a look here in Japan, minus-73points – my goodness gracious.Way, way, way, way down there. Howabout in the UK? We're talkingabout 34 points underwater, keyU.S. allies, the people in thosecountries absolutely despise theU.S. military action in Iran. Nowonder the leaders in thosecountries are, let's just say, alittle apprehensive abouthelping out the U.S."

Trump's war in Iran has even less international support than George W. Bush's war in Iraq two decades ago, according to Enten.

"Thesenumbers are quite low," Enten said. "Theyweren't always this low when itcame to U.S. military action inthe Middle East, because take alook at this situation, okay? Shift in net approval rating,U.S. military action around nowversus in Iraq in 2003. In Canada, way down, we're talkingdown, get this, 27 points. Howabout in Japan? Down, way downthere, down 45 points. How aboutin the UK, and of course, therewas UK involvement in thatparticular war. Look at that,down 48 points. So what we'reseeing is a massive, massiveshift when it comes to how thepeople, our allies, people inthose countries are viewing theU.S. military action in the Middle East – far less popularthis time around. No wonder theleaders in those countries wantpretty much absolutely nothingto do with this conflict,because they know there are bigelectoral consequences if theydo, and not good electoralconsequence."

International approval of the U.S. has dropped dramatically since Trump's re-election, Enten said.

"You see these shiftsdown in terms of how our alliesare, folks in those countriesview U.S. military action in the Middle East, you see howunpopular it is this time around," he said. "Canada, Japan, the UK, and this isjust part of a larger picture.A larger picturefavorable view of the U.S. in2025 versus 2024. Of course, Donald Trump being the presidentin 2025, Joe Biden being thepresident [of the] United States in2024. Look at this, favorableview of the U.S.., down 79 percent of 24countries, residents asked."

"Thebottom line is this: The folksoverseas are far less likely toview the U.S. favorably, andthose chickens are coming hometo roost in this situation, asthere's very little supportabroad for the U.S. militaryaction in Iran," Enten added.
