I hate how CNN and Quinnipiac did their shutdown polls

Splitting among Trump, Congressional Republicans, and Congressional Democrats so it looks like the Dems are most to blame. It lets the press and republicans run with that narrative. And of course that 34% number is Trump’s base. They need to put Trump’s and the republican numbers together to get the real picture

Based on the disingenuous and counter-intuitive polling and the commentary outside of Don Lemon, you should be under no illusion with CNN.

Depending on the sample, the results are skewed.

Nothing about the issues. And failure to agree is legitimate in this system. They are simply "blaming" those representatives who are exercising their right to disagree.
