No, that's just the media inciting tribalism for profit.
People across the political spectrum are sick and tired of our absurdly expensive and destabilizing foreign wars and international policing.
Republican politicians are escalating the war. We've actually increased the number of lives and dollars being sent to this war since Trump came into office. None of the Republican governing factions are seriously opposed to the Middle Eastern war.
Democrat politicians aren't really trying to stop it either. Obama de-escalated relative to Bush, but there was never a serious push to withdraw. Some of the progressive governing factions are in favor of moving foreign war spending to domestic investments, but I don't really hear the drums beating for ending the war purely for the sake of it.
There's a disgusting discrepancy between voter priorities and politicians.
