But more than half blame someone other than Trump. And nearly 5x's more adults blame Democrats than Republicans. Isn't that right Sarah?

Blame? Or credit?

I can’t be the only one who sees a federal shutdown as a positive thing.

Trump accepted the blame but fewer than half think he is to blame?

The Federal shutdown is a good thing. How can it be expanded to state, county and city. The governments in Colorado are getting suckier by the year.

Which means over half, or a majority, agree with the shutdown!

Good point, illustrates the reporters bias.

I just wonder how many of the 47% know how to speak English?

The shut-down will do no good unless the case for a wall is fully explained. Trump needs to rally his cabinet and congressional supporters in this effort, hit the campaign trail, and take his case to the people.

NEARLY half of all Americans voted for Hillary too. -She LOST.

which means: MORE than half of Americans WANT the wall.
