Trump is getting badly beat on the shutdown and its only getting worse and worse and worse: polling expertBRAD REED 14 JAN 2019 AT 09:18 ET
CNN polling analyst Harry Enten said on Monday that recent surveys show that President Donald Trump is getting absolutely thrashed in the public relations battle over the government shutdown.
Reacting to both a CNN poll and an ABC News/Washington Post poll released over the weekend, Enten pointed out that the percentage of Americans blaming Trump and the Republican Party for the shutdown has only been growing in recent weeks.
His position is getting worse and worse and worse, he explained.
Enten then pivoted to polling results showing that a full 66 percent of Americans oppose Trumps proposed plan to build the wall by invoking emergency powers to bypass the need for congressional approval, while only 31 percent support it.
This is just disastrous, Enten said. I just dont understand how President Trump gets out of this the president has backed himself into a corner.

No matter what happens here, Putin wins. So in reality, things are going great for the man in charge, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

(23,991 posts)5. just ask yourself, "how long would Vladimir Putin like the shutdown to last?"
and Trump's "endgame" becomes painfully clear
shutdown as long as possible, until the GOP senate comes through with a veto-proof majority for a CR of some kind
bonus points for considering "how much would Mr. Putin like us to spend on a southern border wall?"

Democrats who are for his shutdown. I'll never understand why reporters seems to expect Trump to react like a rational person instead of a sociopath.
