It's Week 4 Of The Shutdown. Americans Still Think Trump Is To Blame.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

There’s no immediate end in sight to the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, now on Day 25. Thousands of federal workers were forced to go without a paycheck on Friday, and Americans continue to hold President Trump responsible.

In line with polling conducted before Trump’s national address last Tuesday, four new polls show that Americans overwhelmingly blame Trump and congressional Republicans for the partial shutdown1:

A Quinnipiac University poll found that 56 percent of voters held Trump and congressional Republicans responsible for the shutdown (the poll did not ask about the two separately). An additional 36 percent said they thought congressional Democrats were responsible. Only 2 percent of voters said that Trump’s national address changed their mind about building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border; 89 percent said it did not.

Fifty-five percent of Americans blamed Trump for the shutdown, while 32 percent pointed their fingers at congressional Democrats, according to a CNN/SSRS poll. (Respondents were not asked whether they blamed congressional Republicans.) The poll also found that most Americans did not support Trump’s proposal to build a border wall — 56 percent said they opposed the wall, and 39 percent said they were in favor of it. Those numbers are essentially unchanged from one month ago.

1. Govt shutdown horseshit has got to stop.

Especially when the American People are their 'toughness demonstrator'. They insulate themselves, and push us back and forth between themselves. No real urgency on the part of the uber rich bc they just make us all pay. Spkr Pelosi needs to enact laws that take away their paychecks too. Everybody in it together etc. When someone you cant stand is hurting, it's easy to let the pain keep going. The govt shutdown bullshit has got to stop. This should be the last one. Should be a promise to America as a plank in BOTH platforms going forward. STAMP OUT THE GOP. Forever.
