Washington Post-Opposing Trump is making Nancy Pelosi more popular

Yeah for Nancy Pelosi https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2019/01/15/opposing-trump-is-making-nancy-pelosi-more-popular/?utm_term=.653db4d87882

The shutdown has begun to take its toll on President Trump’s poll numbers. The president’s approval rating in Rasmussen’s Daily Tracking Poll fell to its lowest level in nearly a year on Monday.

Nate Silver also noted the shutdown’s adverse effects on Trump’s approval rating. As he tweeted this past weekend:

Trump approval rating continues on a slow but fairly linear decline since the shutdown began. If he's being told this is helping him politically, he's probably not getting good advice. https://t.co/j7XEedEnAf pic.twitter.com/UU3KpR7qjL

Yet while Trump’s numbers are falling, Nancy Pelosi’s are rising.
