Few voters believe the Islamic militant group ISIS has been defeated in Syria, and a plurality supports keeping U.S. forces there, according to the latest Fox News Poll.
On December 19, President Trump declared “we have defeated ISIS in Syria” and ordered the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the country.
The poll, released Thursday, finds 12 percent of voters say ISIS has been defeated. Yet six times as many, 72 percent, disagree. In addition, 46 percent think the U.S. should keep military troops in Syria for counterterrorism operations, while 36 percent want troops removed as soon as possible. Eighteen percent are unsure.
Majorities of Democrats (79 percent) and Republicans (67 percent) say ISIS is not defeated.
Currently, 38 percent of voters approve of the job President Trump is doing on foreign policy, while 53 percent disapprove. He performs better on the economy (49-46 percent), border security (43-53 percent), and immigration (42-54 percent).
The president’s overall job rating stands at 43-54 percent. Last month, before the partial government shutdown, it was 46-52 percent.
