39% blame conservatives.
33% blame democrats.
100% of me doesn't understand my fellow countryman anymore.
Love how you can predict these polls without even looking at the percentages.
Q: Is Donald Trump eating a baby live on CSPAN the fault of the Republicans or the Democrats?
A:
39% Democrats
41% Republicans
12% Both sides are to blame.
8% I don't know.
You forgot the 3% that will ask “Who’s that?”
I think they're heavily propagandized, but basically decent if you can actually get them to see reality. Take this set of findings from the full poll link as an example
Like, those first three bullet points tell me large majorities want the right things, but that last one shows that lots of them are living in worlds of disinformation
e; Also, I can find a ton of headlines talking about how the percentage that blame Dems for the shutdown and that blame the GOP moved up and down a few points respectively, but I haven't seen any headlines focusing specifically on 2/3 of Americans saying ICE officers should be required to wear uniforms
Decent? They’re literally Nazis
