How’s that #Resist hashtag workin’ out for ya’, Democrats? Not that your hysteria levels would permit any de-escalation, but really, the American people are sick of your frenzied inability to accept the verdict of the election. Jonathan Easley reports for The Hill on a new poll it exclusively published:

A strong majority of Americans say Democrats should look to cooperate with President Trump to strike deals, according to the inaugural Harvard-Harris poll provided exclusively by The Hill.

The survey found that 73 percent of voters want to see Democrats work with the president, against only 27 percent who said Democrats should resist Trump’s every move.

The findings are significant as Democratic leaders in Congress are under growing pressure by their liberal base to obstruct the president's agenda. The poll shows the party is divided on how to deal with Trump: 52 percent of Democrats polled say they should cooperate with him on areas of agreement and 48 percent saying they shouldn't.

Hmmm. And here I thought, that by the actions of schmuckee schumerberg and sanfran nan, things were just peachy on capital hill. So, who is showing more opposition? Rinos or dementocrats. Hard to tell with folks like linda grahm and john mclame yapping.

I'd like to see a breakdown of who the 27% are... it's gotta be more than the MSM...

Why is it that when Dems are in power, Repiblicans have to “ride in the back of the bus”and when Republicans are in power we have to work together?

I would rather that the Dems get a job and help push the bus.

With a Republican congress, if they don’t that accrues to Trump’s benefit, though not the nation. Dem’s worrying about their vision of political dominance over the nation’s interests, no surprise. A partisan tax cut can simply be referred to as the Trump Tax Cut.

That’s 73% that’ll be disappointed because the answer absolutely not. This bs will go on for 8 years.

The Democrats have to be against Trump to continue to get money from opposition groups. It is why someone like Pelosi continues in a leadership role. They need money from Soros who opposes Trump. If they support Trump the money will be gone. The Democrats will not be able to have a party with the donations.

I’m not sure I want Republicans to work with Democrats. Better to bury them heartlessly.

I'd be interested to know how many people in the USA don't know who is the president.

I don’t want the damned Democrat leftist asshats anywhere near the Republicans. If they begin incestuous relations once again then America is cooked.

Keep us divided as few of us here want any accommodation for the enemy.

“The survey found that 73 percent of voters want to see Democrats work with the president, against only 27 percent who said Democrats should resist Trump’s every move.”

And just think, Trump has been in office for only a month!! I read somewhere where the “loony left” is about 20%, so President Trump has more work to do here. Another month should do it!
