Thursday marks the 30th day of the federal government shutdown and the American public has grown more concerned about the shutdown throughout the month and more disapprove of how Donald Trump is handling the federal government, according to an ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll conducted using Ipsos’ KnowledgePanel.

More Americans blame Trump and the Republicans in Congress than the Democrats for the shutdown, the poll finds.

    You can struggle all you want to make Sinema the face of the Democratic Party

    None has been more clear on labor.

    biden’s appearance on one picket line was a photo op to try to gloss over how he had broken the rail strike.

    And “Class Traitor?” WTF is that? What “Class” do you think I belong to that I am betraying?

    Oh, you don’t like being called a traitor? Or is it only ok to use that word when you’re using it to claim that anyone to your left must be all the way to your right?

      Dude, you keep trying to make Sinema relevant, she’s sooo not. You’re like that MAGA I recently spoke with who kept trying to make me defend JFK. WTF?

      CLASS Traitor? What Class? Or are you just saying you are just making some nonsensical claim? Whatever, you’re point isn’t clear, and if it’s what I think it is, it’s pretty weak.

      Besides, I’ve been lifelong patriot, from a military family, with a degree in history, and excellent Critical Thinking Skills. NOBODY could ever make a case that I’m a traitor, except actual scummy traitors desperately trying to flip the script.

        National minimum wage hasn’t gone up since she stood with you and against workers. Her thumbs down remains the definitive final message from democrats to the workers they only pretend to want to help.

        You’re like that MAGA

        “everyone to my left is all the way to my right. I get to call you a traitor while I stan for anyone who votes to keep millions in poverty”

          Stood with me against workers? WTF are you talking about? I’m about as pro-labor as it gets.

          And what does minimum wage have to do with it? The Federal Minimum Wage has been raised only twice since 1997, for a total of $2.10. The last time it was raised was in 2009, when it was raised to the current $7.25. Sinema didn’t enter Congress until 2019, a decade later. NOBODY has raised the Federal Minimum Wage before or after Sinema, so I don’t understand how she is responsible for it, or why you seem to think she is leading the Democrats in DENYING (?) an increase in the minimum wage. Has MAGA been pushing for an increase, and Dems are resisting it, citing Sinema, even though she isn’t in Congress?

          Here’s a suggestion - figure out what the fuck you’re talking about, and then try posting. Until then, you’re only making an idiot out of yourself.

            Do I have to show you the video of her thumbs down?

            And no, she wasn’t leading the democrats in making sure the workers you want to stay poor stay poor. She was carrying out the party’s agenda when she made sure to cheat workers out of wages for you.

            Sinema didn’t enter Congress until 2019, a decade later. NOBODY has raised the Federal Minimum Wage before or after Sinema

            They pretended to try in 2021. Sinema and 7 others, mainly from blue states that already had increased minimum wages, were willing to go on the record as hating workers. Those were only the ones willing to put their names down. There will always be enough anti-worker members of the party to do what you want and block minimum wage increases for you.

            Here’s a suggestion - figure out what the fuck you’re talking about,

            Stop assuming that everyone who disagrees with you doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
