Taking a Quinnipiac poll seriously? Pfft.

[proust]

Well, when he gets the wall he can get the credit for that too.

[Toespi]

No, no, no. It is OUR shutdown, Donald Trump is simply making it happen.

[elpadre]

I believe there needs to be an all out drive to rename the wall. Stop calling it the “Trump Wall.” Come up with a better name. Using the name “Trump Wall” turns off the fanatics which happen to be a large percentage of the lefties, the ones who seem to always get polled.

[Gay State Conservative]

Just the other day a CBS poll had 34% of people blaming Rats and 33% blaming DJT.More recently the Amazon Compost had an increasing number of people recognizing the border as a crisis.

It's not Trump's Wall.

It's OUR WALL. It belongs to We the People. Trump is just working for US.

QuinniPEEack!

[StAnDeliver]

Look at Eddie quote Quinnipiac LOFL

[amihow]

Pray that Trump ignores all such polls and, regardless of the political consequences, closes the border or does whatever necessary to save this country.

He will be a hero.

History will prove him a savior of one nation under God!

This is our last chance.

I agree, but that is not is not what it is being called. We need to change what people are calling it. Call it something else, an appropriate name and then go all out to change the name on people’s lips. I suspect many people are voting against the wall because they hate Trump and it has become known as “Trump’s Wall.”

[NorthMountain]

We need to change what people are calling it.

Yes. I call it "Our Wall" or "America's Wall". And the current budget drama is the "Schumer Shutdown".

[Gasshog]

Trump knew these kind of polls would be flying around and inoculated himself against it in advance, none of this is going to sway the President.

I immediately thought of "Hadrian's Wall" and that causes me to believe calling it "Trump's Wall" will be just fine.

RE: More recently the Amazon Compost had an increasing number of people recognizing the border as a crisis.

Well, it looks like voters have to choose — which one is more important, securing the border with a wall or keeping 25% of the Federal government open.

[HamiltonJay]

Funny thing is.. if you asked me, I would say I “blame” Trump for the shut down... but that doesn’t mean its a bad thing.... If you asked me who I blamed for the shutdown I would say Trump.... but that doesn’t mean I am against it, I AM ALL FOR IT!

BUILD THE WALL...

And I am sure I am not the only one.

[EasySt]

I bet many republicans and independents would say Trump is mainly responsible, and bless him for for working so hard to get the right things done, the right way with the right tools, all while exposing the opposition for what it is.

It would not have happened without him.

Secure the borders.

Then we can let the non-essential, shutdown part of the federal government go back to being non-essential.

[HamiltonJay]

That’s the point I am making they are portraying this poll as though folks “blaming” Trump means the public is against him...

[ridesthemiles]

Too many citizens of the USA don’t live anywhere near the border & have NEVER been directly affected by the presence of illegal invaders.
