Donald Trump wants Americans to believe that the dysfunction of the 115th Congress is due to Democrats. But the public is not buying that ridiculous lie. They know who has a majority in both houses of Congress, and they put most of the blame on that party -- the Republican Party.
About 44% of all adults (and 45% of registered voters) blame the Republicans, while only 12% of adults (and 13% of registered voters) blame the Democrats. The remainder blames both parties equally.
This chart reflects the results of the latest Economist / YouGov Poll -- done between October 7th and 10th of a random national sample of 1,500 adults (including 1,278 registered voters), with a margin of error of 3.1 points (3.2 points for registered voters).
Is it dysfunction or poor performance? To me dysfunction means they’re not getting anything done however poor performance could also include disapproval of congress pursuing unpopular policies and/or passing poor legislation.
