Luntz: Second shutdown over health care would be 'very painful' for Republicans

(The Hill) Pollster Frank Luntz said Tuesday that Republicans would face an uphill battle with voters if the government shuts down in January over health care policy.

“The shutdown that we experienced, the longest ever in American history, started off hurting Democrats more than Republicans; ended up hurting President Trump more than anybody else,” Luntz said during an appearance on CNN’s “News Central.”

“If the government does shut down because they still can’t find a solution to this, it is going to be very painful for the Republican Party, because, as you note, every survey, every poll that’s out there, shows that Republicans will be hurt more by this than Democrats,” he added.
