I Was Right About the Pathetic Democrats

It’s nice to be right. 

My prediction from the beginning of the Democrats’ shutdown showdown was that their pathetic posturing would backfire on them. 

And it appears it has. 

A new CBS News and YouGov poll conducted after the shutdown ended shows that 55% of the country believes that President Donald Trump and Republicans “got more of what they wanted” from shutdown negotiations. Only 6% think the Democrats did. 

That’s not surprising considering there really weren’t a ton of negotiations involved. From the beginning, Republicans wanted a simple piece of legislation to keep the government funded and open – and work out other policy debates later. The Democrats wouldn’t have it, however, and tried to force an extension of costly Obamacare subsidies.
