This has occured at least 47 times I believe since Reagan started shutting down the government. If they got paid for all 46 other times, and not this one… It really should be pointing to this administration
Yes, objectively. People overwhelmingly blame the GOP, by 17 points. Both the majority of Dems and independents blame Trump, with even 10% of Republicans blaming him.
Oh I definitely think they’re getting the heat this time, I was more curious about the other shutdowns “in recent memory”. Because talking to my conservative parents and others that doesn’t seem as clear.
Trump’s approval rating dropped during the shutdown.[21][22] A majority of Americans opposed exploitation of the shutdown as a negotiating strategy and held Trump responsible for the shutdown: A CBS News poll found that 71% of Americans considered the border wall “not worth the shutdown”[23] and a Washington Post/ABC News poll found that 53% of Americans blamed Trump and Republicans for the shutdown, compared to 34% who blamed Democrats and 10% who blamed both parties.[24]
Its not even ambiguous. Your parents are likely just very I’ll iformed if they think anyone but the GOP is percieved as responsible for these farces.

Republicans have been blamed for every shutdown in recent memory by the polled general public. This is a losing battle for them no matter what happens
Their propagandists still have to try.
In our filter bubbles maybe, but does broader public polling support that sentiment?

The last shutdown in recent memory was also Trump, in 2019. The majority of voters accurately blamed him for that one.

Apparently big change comes with the number 47…
