GOP Voters Backed the Iran Deal Right Up Until They Read It

A new survey confirms Republican supporters of the Trump administration's Iran agreement reversed course upon learning the deal's contents — a development the Party considers entirely routine.

Republican voters initially backed the Iran peace deal 62% to 20%, a margin of more than three-to-one, per a J.L. Partners survey.
Support collapsed once respondents were informed of the deal's specific terms and provisions.
The voters in question backed the party and the administration that negotiated and signed the agreement.
The Leopards Eating People's Faces Party notes the platform has always included the eating of faces.
The Party expresses its customary regret and has no plans to revise its commitment to face-eating.

The Leopards Eating People's Faces Party wishes to acknowledge, with its customary regret, that a quantity of faces has been eaten among the Republican voter cohort, and that those faces were, in the relevant respects, self-presented.

According to a survey conducted by J.L. Partners, Republican voters supported the Trump administration's Iran agreement by a margin exceeding three-to-one — 62% in favor, 20% opposed — prior to receiving information about what the agreement contained. Upon learning the deal's contents, support collapsed. The Party regards this sequence of events as operationally unremarkable.

We would note, for the record, that the administration which produced this agreement was the same administration these voters elected, funded, and endorsed at the ballot box. The leopards retained to negotiate on their behalf were the same leopards described in the platform. The platform, as it has always been, concerns the eating of faces.

The Party understands that “support the deal” and “know what is in the deal” are activities some voters prefer to schedule sequentially rather than simultaneously. We do not judge this preference. We observe only that the leopards were not similarly inclined to wait.

The Party extends its sincere sympathies to the affected faces and reaffirms that its commitment to the platform remains, as ever, total and unconditional.
