GOP, Trump seen as getting more from shutdown deal; Democrats say party compromised too much, CBS poll finds

US lawmakers and voters are largely disappointed with the deal that ended the recent government shutdown. According to a new CBS News/YouGov survey, more Americans believe Republicans and President Trump got more of what they wanted than Democrats did.

The poll found that 54% of Americans think Republicans were successful in getting most of what they wanted from the negotiations, compared to just 26% who said the same about Democrats. A smaller percentage, 27%, believed both parties got a good deal out of the shutdown.

Rank-and-file Democrats are less satisfied with their party's performance during the negotiations. In contrast, Republicans are more likely to say they're relieved and satisfied with the final result.

The survey also found that many Americans believe health care issues were at the center of the debate during the shutdown. A majority think that health insurance premiums will increase in the coming months due to the shutdown, while others expect air travel to improve as government employees return to work.
 
πŸ€” seems like most ppl r more concerned about healthcare than actual gov't spending πŸ“‰ just a bunch of politicans playin' with people's lives πŸ’Έ 54% think reps got away w/ most, but that still leaves alot of ppl unsatisfied 😐 might be good for dems to rethink strategy instead of just waiting for other ppl to move πŸ”„
 
πŸ€” I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing... it's crazy how divided everyone is on the deal. I mean, 54% of people think Republicans got away with most of what they wanted? That's wild 🀯. And only 26% of folks think Democrats came out on top? It feels like nobody's really happy about the outcome πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. The health care stuff is really interesting, though... I'm not surprised people are worried about premiums increasing - that's always been a major point of contention for me πŸ’Έ. And actually, it makes sense that air travel would improve once government employees get back to work - it's only logical 😊. But still, it's weird how everything seems so partisan now 🀝.
 
I just can't believe how fast time flies πŸ•°οΈ! Remember when our grandparents used to have real face-to-face talks with politicians? Nowadays it's all about surveys and polls 😊. Anyway, I'm kinda surprised that more Americans think Republicans got the better deal... I mean, didn't we learn from the whole Obama care debacle? πŸ€” Still, I'm no expert, what do I know? The thing is, health care is always gonna be a big issue, but can't we just talk it out instead of shutting down the government? πŸ™„ It's like when I was little and my parents used to argue about who left the dishes in the sink – we didn't have the luxury of taking a 30-day break πŸ˜‚. Guess that's progress for you! πŸ’‘
 
I'm not surprised that most people are dissatisfied with how the deal went down πŸ€”. I mean, it's pretty obvious that Democrats didn't get much of what they wanted from those negotiations 😐. And yeah, Republicans did seem to come out on top, but at what cost? The shutdown was a huge disruption to so many lives - I feel bad for all the feds who had to deal with the uncertainty πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ.

I also don't buy that health care issues were really the main focus of the whole thing πŸ™„. I think there's more to it than that. The fact that a lot of people expect air travel to improve now just seems like a nice PR move to me πŸš€. And what about the people who actually work in healthcare? What about them and their families? I'm not seeing a whole lot of support for them from this deal πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ.

It's just so frustrating when politics gets in the way of people's lives πŸ’”. Can't we all just get along and find common ground? πŸ˜’
 
Wow 🀯 - it's crazy how polarized people are on this deal! I was expecting a lot more unity, but I guess when you're talking about something that affects millions of Americans, everyone has an opinion πŸ’Έ. It's interesting how many people think healthcare is the biggest winner here πŸ₯, but at what cost?
 
πŸ€• just saw this news and i'm already worried about healthcare πŸš‘ premiums are gonna skyrocket cuz of this shutdown! 54% of ppl think republicans got a better deal? what's the point of even having a gov if they can't protect our health? πŸ€” and now ppl expect air travel to improve? that's just a slap in the face. 27% of ppl think both parties got a good deal? lol what about all the workers who lost pay cuz of this shutdown? 😩
 
πŸ˜’ I gotta say, I'm a bit surprised by how the public is reacting to this deal... 54% of people think Republicans came out on top? πŸ€” I mean, I get it, they did manage to push for some pretty sweet concessions, but at what cost? πŸ€‘ We all know the shutdown had serious ripple effects on our economy and public services. And now, with health care issues still looming large... πŸ₯πŸ’Έ I'm just not feeling confident that this deal is gonna do much good in the long run πŸ€•.
 
Ugh, can't say I'm surprised lol πŸ˜’... it seems like no one's going to stand up for themselves here. Republicans are already feeling good about getting what they wanted, which is pretty sad if you ask me πŸ€”. And don't even get me started on the fact that 54% of people think they won πŸ™„. I mean, how can anyone believe that? It's like they're all just drinking the Kool-Aid or something πŸ₯€. And what's with all this talk about health insurance premiums going up? Like we didn't already know that was gonna happen with healthcare πŸ˜‚... it's just more proof that politicians are only looking out for themselves.
 
πŸ€” I don't get why people are still surprised about how this deal went down. I mean, it's been pretty clear for ages that Republicans are super good at negotiating because they're all about short-term gains πŸ€‘. They got what they wanted and walked away, no questions asked.

On the other hand, Democrats seem like they were really caught off guard by everything 🀯. I get it, you guys aren't as used to playing the game, but that's not an excuse for not being more prepared πŸ“Š. It's all about understanding how the system works and what you can realistically compromise on.

I'm kinda annoyed that people are saying Democrats didn't do so great, though πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. I mean, sure, they might not have gotten everything they wanted, but it's not like Republicans got a sweet deal or anything πŸ˜’. And don't even get me started on the health care stuff – who knows what's really going to happen? It's all just speculation at this point πŸ€”.
 
man I dont get it what did republicans want and didnt they just agree on everything with dems? seems like trumps plan all along was to just keep the goverment shut down so they could blame dems for everything πŸ˜’. also how is 54% of americans satisfied with repubs getting most of whats they wanted? thats not good at all πŸ€”. anyway, i do think healthcare was a big deal during the shutdown and now its interesting to see what happens next - will premiums go up as expected or maybe dems will somehow manage to fix it without increasing costs πŸ’Έ.
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole shutdown thing 🀯... it's like, I get where both sides are coming from, but I wish we could've found a more middle ground. You know? Like, for real πŸ’–, who wants to be locked out of their own government? It's crazy that more people think Republicans got the better end of the deal πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ... I'm not saying they didn't try hard or anything, but it just feels like we're stuck in this never-ending cycle of gridlock πŸ’”. And honestly, who cares about the politics when there are real people affected by it? Like, those healthcare workers who lost pay during the shutdown... poor guys πŸ‘Š... I hope we can do better next time 🀞
 
I'm kinda surprised by how divided we are on this deal. I mean, I get it, both parties have their own opinions on what went down, but 54% of Americans think Republicans got more of what they wanted? That's a pretty big number! πŸ€” And to be honest, I can see why rank-and-file Democrats might feel that way - all this fuss over healthcare and its impact on premiums... it's kinda worrying. And then there's the air travel thing, which is just nice to know we'll get some relief in that department soon 😊. But at the end of the day, I guess that's just how politics works out. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
 
man this whole deal with the gov shutdown is like a big ol mess 🀯... i mean who really won here? i'm telling ya, it's like they're all just puppets on strings, you know? 54% of ppl think republicans got away with some kinda magic trick, but what about the democrats? did they even get anything outta this? and don't even get me started on the health care stuff... premiums are gonna go up, air travel's gonna improve... sounds like a whole lotta BS to me πŸ€₯. i'm not saying either party is perfect, but can we at least admit that there's more to this story than just what we're seeing on the surface? πŸ€”
 
I'm low-key shocked by how divided people are about this deal 🀯. I mean, I get it, no one's happy with what happened. But for me, the real winners here are those who care about innovation and tech - think 5G networks and healthcare advancements πŸ’»πŸ“ˆ. With more focus on healthcare issues during the shutdown, I'm hyped to see how this will impact our daily lives πŸš€. Plus, with an improved air travel experience, that's just a bonus for travelers 😎. What really gets me excited is the potential for increased investment in areas like AI and research - it's gonna be huge πŸ’Έ! Can't wait to see what new tech comes out of this πŸš€
 
idk about this... think republicans got a sweet deal but then again it's not like they were able to get all their crazy demands thru πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. and 54% of americans think that? that sounds way off to me. i mean, don't get me wrong, repubs did manage to push thru some things, but at what cost? also, can we talk about how much this whole shutdown is gonna mess with people's healthcare πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ? health insurance premiums are already so high as it is...
 
I'm kinda bummed out by this whole thing πŸ€”. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's awesome that the government is open again and all, but at the same time, I think we should be looking for more solutions than just a bunch of compromises. Like, what about addressing those health care issues head on? We're talking about people losing their health insurance or having to pay through the nose because of the shutdown... it's just not right.

And from where I'm sitting, it seems like Republicans are getting away with a pretty sweet deal πŸ€‘. I mean, sure, Democrats might've gotten some things they wanted too, but it doesn't feel like we're making any real progress here. We need to be thinking bigger than just getting re-elected or looking good in the polls. We need to think about what's best for the country and its people.

I guess that's why I'm kinda optimistic about the idea of ranked-choice voting πŸ—³οΈ. It might not have been implemented during this whole shutdown thing, but it could be a game-changer in terms of getting more people involved in the democratic process and making sure we're actually representing everyone's voices.
 
I don’t usually comment but... I think it’s crazy how polarized everything is right now 🀯. I mean, I get that both parties have their own goals and whatnot, but it feels like they're not even trying to find common ground anymore. Like, the shutdown was a big deal, but did anyone really win or lose? From where I'm sitting, it just seems like more drama for social media πŸ“±. And don't even get me started on the polls – 54% of people think Republicans got what they wanted? That's wild considering how much of a headache Trump can be sometimes πŸ˜’. I guess what I'm saying is... maybe we should just take a deep breath and try to see things from each other's perspectives, you know? πŸ€—
 
I'm telling you, this whole deal was a setup from the start! πŸ€” They wanted to create chaos and then swoop in with some half-baked compromise that only benefits the 1%. I mean, come on, 54% of Americans think Republicans came out on top? That's gotta be some kind of propaganda. And don't even get me started on the healthcare aspect - they're trying to screw us over by increasing premiums and whatnot. But you know who's not affected? The corporations! They just love this kind of thing, more "free market" nonsense. Give me a break... πŸš«πŸ’Έ
 
πŸ€” honestly can't believe how these politicians keep playing us like that... 54% think republicans got what they wanted? πŸ™„ come on! it's not even close. and don't even get me started on the healthcare thing, i mean who really thinks health insurance premiums are gonna go up because of this shutdown? 🚫 we already know how much more expensive it is with trump in office... anyway, i'm just so over these partisan games they play... πŸ’”
