The United States government is paralyzed and Americans are more inclined to blame President Donald Trump and Republicans for the fact, according to four independent national surveys made before or during the cut of funds.
A survey of Washington Post held on October 1, the first day of the closing, he revealed that 47 % of American adults blame Trump and Republicans in Congress, while 30 % blame the Democrats and 23 % said they were not sure.
The independents blamed Trump and Republicans for a wide range of 50 % to 22 %. And a third of the Republicans were not sure who to blame (25 %) or blamed their party (8 %)
A survey of New York Times/Siena made at the end of September revealed that blaming both games equally for a government closure was the most popular response, chosen by 33 % of registered voters.
Another 26 % would blame Trump and Republicans, while 19 % would blame the Democrats, and 21 % said they had not heard enough.
A survey by Marist, PBS News and NPR at the end of September revealed that 38 % would blame Republicans, while 27 % said that Democrats.
Another 31 % said they would blame both parties equally and 5 % said they would not blame any or that he was not sure who was responsible.
In a Morning Consult survey at the end of September, 45 % of registered voters said it would blame Republicans in Congress for a government closure, while 32 % said that Democrats.
United States Government closed by budget disagreements, and without a solution to view
The independents blamed the Republicans by a 41 % margin compared to 24 % of the Democrats.
The closure began at 00:01 of October 1, after Congress and Trump did not achieve an agreement to finance the government.
Republicans control the White House and both cameras of Congress, but need 60 votes in the Senate to approve a financing bill, and only control 53 seats.
That means that Democratic votes need any measure that allows the government to reopen. In exchange for their votes, the Democrats have demanded an extension of the funds of the Asequible Medical Care Law (ACA), which expire, the repeal of the cuts to Medicaid, changes in the “great and beautiful law” of Trump, and guarantees that the President will not unilaterally retain the money ordered by the Congress in a government of government financing, as his administration has done several times in recent times.
Republicans claim that they will not concessions to the Democrats simply to maintain the open government. They are willing to negotiate on the subsidies of the Asequible Medical Care Law, which they expire and that will cause a drastic increase in medical insurance premiums if they are not renewed, but only once the government is financed, according to the republican leader of the Senate, John Thune, Republican by South Dakota.
However, many Republican legislators want subsidies to be completely eliminated.
