More Americans blame Trump, Republicans for shutdown than Democrats: Survey

[lostincalifornia]

"Close to half of Americans blame President Trump and Republicans for the current government shutdown, according to a new poll.

In the poll from The Washington Post, 47 percent of respondents said “Trump and Republicans in Congress” are “mainly responsible for the federal government partially shutting down,” while 30 percent pinned the blame on “Democrats in Congress” for the shutdown.

In the survey, 66 percent of respondents said they are either “very” or “somewhat” concerned over the shutdown, while 34 percent said they are “not too” or “not at all” concerned.

The Post poll took place Wednesday, featuring 1,010 people and a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points."

2. The media loves blame game polls. Wish they'd dig in and report why we're in this mess to inform their viewers

3. Yeah, why don't they report facts

Instead of reporting what a bunch of randos think the facts are?

4. This just proves that about 1/3 of the people who are actually polled are

bat shit crazy, and have no business being allowed to vote, or walk the streets without an armed chaperone.
