Despite the Russian-GOP collusion, the public has decided it was the #shithole shutdown.
The Dems did not have a great hand to play, didn't spend the time laying the framework for the argument, and anyone who thinks extending the shutdown would have resulted more favorably is off the reservation.
They made their point (Trump is a chaotic, racist, retard), but didn't overextend to where the shutdown actually impacted people and pissed them off.
Now we're off to round two to enjoy the lies and flailing by the GOP.
"According to a POLITICO/Morning Consult poll conducted Saturday and Sunday, a combined 48 percent of respondents said President Donald Trump (34 percent) and Republicans in Congress (15 percent) were to blame for the shutdown — more than the 35 percent who said congressional Democrats bore most of the blame.
And a majority, 53 percent, thought Trump hadn’t done enough to bring the parties together — compared with 29 percent who thought Trump had done enough."
