As the government shutdown barrels toward a fourth week, Republicans and Democrats are pointing at each other, but a CNN analyst says one side has a clear advantage.

CNN analyst Harry Enten says that President Donald Trump is taking less blame for the current shutdown than a previous shutdown during Trump's first term.

'There's no real reason Donald Trump might say, at least when it comes to popular support, "I want to get out of this shutdown."'

"This shutdown is a different world for Trump than the 2018-19 shutdown. He's in a much better spot," Enten wrote on social media.

"His net approval is up slightly during this shutdown vs. dropping during 2018-19. Why?" he added. "The [percentage] who blame him a great deal for the shutdown is down significantly now vs. 2018-19."
