Europe EditionTrump’s base in uproar over his openness to joining Iran fight
- Donald Trump hinted he may deploy U.S. military support to help Israel target Iran's nuclear program amid ongoing tensions in June 2025.
- This shift follows Israel's major attack on Iranian facilities last week and has exposed divisions within Trump's traditional America First base.
- Key figures like Steve Bannon urged caution absent a diplomatic deal, while allies such as Lindsey Graham advocate full support to eliminate the nuclear threat.

- The internal rift risks weakening Trump's hold on his base and complicating Republican unity as many await his final decision on U.S. involvement.
