The majority of Americans are against Trump on the wall and the shutdown

President Donald Trump is taking his case to the American people over why they should back him in the partial government shutdown.

But Trump is facing an uphill climb: polls show a majority of Americans blame him and Republicans for the shutdowns, and the majority have also consistently been opposed to his idea of a border wall with Mexico. CONT.
