Click here         Most Americans Say It’s Time For Trump To Move On From The Wall​ Americans are largely ready to see President Donald Trump and the GOP move on from their pursuit of a border wall, according to a HuffPost/YouGov survey conducted after the end of the government shutdown.  Just 37 percent of Americans polled said Trump and the GOP should keep working to pass a bill that funds a wall on the border with Mexico, while 54 percent said they want to see Republicans turn their attention to other issues. But those surveyed said they’re not entirely optimistic the government will avoid further gridlock: 72 percent said it’s at least somewhat likely that there will be another government shutdown within a month, Respondents gave negative ratings to everyone in Washington for the shutdown, with disapproval of Congress’ performance 41 percentage points higher than approval. The public also gave negative net ratings to congressional Republicans (–25), Trump (–19) and, by a lesser margin, Democrats in Congress (–8) and their own representatives (–5).
