From Breitbart: Far-left CNN has been forced to admit that President Trump is winning the political debate against the Democrats and the fake media in the ongoing government shutdown battle.
During the government shutdown in Trump’s first term, the president watched his approval ratings drop by three points as an average of 61 percent of those polled primarily blamed him.
Fast-forward to today and Trump’s average approval rating during the shutdown is up by a point as fewer than half of those polled, 48 percent, blame him for the shutdown.
Enten poined out that the shutdown during Trump’s first term actually hurt his approval rating, but added, “This shutdown is not hurting Trump at all.”
Enten also noted Trump is taking massive action during the shutdown, and is “using his pen” to sign executive orders.
WATCH BELOW:
This shutdown is a different world for Trump than the 2018-19 shutdown. He's in a much better spot.
His net approval is up slightly during this shutdown vs. dropping during 2018-19.
Why? The % who blame him a great deal for the shutdown is down significantly now vs. 2018-19. pic.twitter.com/WHEqHaqo4M
