> 60% of Americans oppose sending US troops into Venezuela to remove Maduro from power. Support is heavily concentrated among Republicans, with 58% in favor, compared to just 21% of independents and 14% of Democrats.

60% is far from vast and the party in power is all for it.

Now that Trump has reported that Maduro was removed from power, it will be interesting to run this poll again and see the support given the success of the operation.
