That wouldn't affect the war just like lack of support for it didn't, population of US has no say on consequences of the wars their government wages, worrying about their support when it has no effect is meaningless

Let's hope they level the Pentagon to the ground instead of a primary girls only school

    I ... Don't believe you are correct here. The US has the most destructive military (non-nuclear) on the planet. The country simply does not have the appetite to actually commit blood, sweat, and money to this war. If they start striking the US, the US people will see it as an existential threat and be far more willing to dedicate as many resources as nessesary to eliminating the threat regardless of the fact that the US started it. That would be bad for everyone, but especially Iran.

    It is far better to have the US population largely split in their support for the war effort.
