Shock Poll: Broad Majority of Americans Reject Democrat Push to Shut Down Government

Hannah Knudsen 30 Sep 2025

A wide majority of Americans reject the Democrat push to shut down the government — which will happen at midnight if nothing changes — a shock New York Times/Siena Poll found.

The survey asked respondents about their views on whether Democrats should or should not shut down the government if their demands are not met.

Across the board, the majority of all respondents — 65 percent — said Democrats should not shut down the government, compared to just 27 percent who said they should.

Surprisingly, Democrats themselves remain relatively split, as less than a majority, 47 percent, said they believe fellow Democrats should shut down the government if their demands are not met. However, 43 percent said they should not.

Additionally, most independents, 59 percent, believe the Democrats should not shut down the government,  aligning with the vast majority of Republicans — a massive 92 percent.

Question: Why are Dems shutting down the Government?

Answer: So illegal aliens can still receive Obamacare health coverage.

Dems are not shutting it down to fight for Americans.  They are shutting down the Government to fight for foreigners who are in the country illegally.

Dems are [NOT] shutting it down to fight for Americans.  They are shutting down the Government to fight for foreigners who are in the country illegally.

The GOP as a Party is worthless when it comes to messaging.

They wait until 3 months before an election to spend $$$ on campaign messaging when they could counter the LEFT and the complicit MSM.

NOW is the time to show that the DEMS care more about illegal immigrants than their constituents.

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

He claims to be a "shomer" or watcher for the Jewish community....
I watch him sell out for his own interests. Most dangerous place to be is between Chuckles and a camera.

Shocking only to the likes of the New York Times.
