The CBS News/YouGov poll, conducted between Oct. 1 and Oct. 3 among 2,441 adults, found that 39% of respondents believe Trump and congressional Republicans deserve the most blame for the shutdown. Thirty percent of respondents blame Democrats more, and 31% blame both equally.
The poll also found that 52% of respondents disapprove of the way Trump is handling the shutdown. Fifty-two percent also disapprove of the way congressional Republicans are handling it.
Meanwhile, 49% percent of respondents disapprove of the way Democrats in Congress are handling the shutdown.
The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.3 percentage points.
That sounds about right. I would ballpark the number of MAGA die hards who will believe absolutely everything he says at around 30% of the US. So that’s actually the best I would ever hope for on that front. The part that’s most disappointing to me is the 31% blaming both equally.
