The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

marco100:The constituencies are getting restless and telling the Dems to pass the clean C.R. and the Dems are too arrogant to listen.

Umm, lessee now.

According to Associated Press–NORC Center for Public Affairs Research polling, about six in ten Americans said Trump and Republicans in Congress have “a great deal” or “quite a bit” of responsibility for the shutdown, while 54% said the same for Democrats in Congress.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll found 67% of adults say Republicans deserve a fair amount or a great deal of blame, 63% say Democrats deserve the same, and 63% say Trump does as well.

A Quinnipiac University poll found 45% blame Republicans in Congress, 39% blame Democrats in Congress; among independents, 48% blamed Republicans, 32% blamed Democrats.

In short, a plurality of Americans blame the Republicans for the shutdown.
