https://thehill.com/hilltv/what-ame...continues-independent-voters-are-increasingly POLL SHOWS INDEPENDENTS INCREASINGLY AGAINST TRUMP ON SHUTDOWN 1/22/2019 A new poll shows independent voters are increasingly blaming President Trump as the partial federal government shutdown heads into a second month. In the latest The Hill-HarrisX survey, 46 percent of registered voters who identify as political independents said that Trump and the congressional GOP are primarily responsible for the government closure, a 7-point jump from a Dec. 30-31 survey. Just 17 percent of independents said that congressional Democrats were primarily responsible, up by just 1 percentage point from the earlier survey. The poll also found that voters of both parties have increasingly moved toward blaming the opposing party for the budget standoff. Republican voters are 9 percentage points more likely to blame congressional Democrats for the situation now in comparison to December. Meanwhile, Democratic voters are even more likely to point the finger at President Trump: Eighty-one percent of Democratic voters say that Trump and the congressional GOP are to blame, up 3 points from the previous survey. Notably, even as GOP voters' willingness to blame Democrats has increased, only 56 percent of Republican voters say that congressional Democrats are responsible. By comparison, 81 percent of Democratic voters say that Trump or the congressional GOP are at fault. Thirteen percent of Republican respondents said that Trump and the congressional GOP were responsible, while 24 percent said that both parties were to blame. Trump said last month during a public meeting with Democratic congressional leaders that he would be "proud to shut down the government for border security" and that he would refrain from blaming them for the shutdown, though he has subsequently sought to shift blame for the shutdown to Democrats.

CBS as the source? I would imagine Nancy and the Democrats will end up taking a hit over the State of the Union Address and their unwillingness to even consider Trump’s great compromise. My question is, why would the Democrats care about Trump’s alledged declining polls numbers? It seems the Democrats are feeling heavy heat from their donors and lobbyists to get Government money fully flowing again. The polls are being used in an attempt to pressure Trump. I would love to see Trump batten down the hatches and redirect his efforts towards reduced Goverment spending and a balanced budget.
