CNN Poll Backfires as Majority Blame Joe Biden and Congressional Democrats for Government Shutdown
A recent CNN poll has revealed that the majority of Americans place the blame for the current government shutdown on Joe Biden and Congressional Democrats. This marks a significant departure from previous shutdowns, where the public largely blamed Republicans.
Is America waking up?
According to the CNN poll, when asked who they would mainly blame for a government shutdown, 39% of respondents pointed the finger at Joe Biden or the Democrats in Congress. In contrast, only 33% blamed the GOP in Congress, and 22% said both parties were equally responsible.
CNN reporter commented, “I think this one was a bit of a surprise to me given, I think, what the conventional wisdom is.”
The poll results are particularly noteworthy because they break from historical trends.
