Day 6 of the government shutdown. No end in sight. Trump dodges on ACA funding extension, key sticking point: "We want to fix it so it works." Doesn't say how. A 5th poll shows Trump/GOP taking more blame than Dems for the shutdown. Story w/ @news_jul: nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

NEW: I asked President Trump if he's open to extending the Affordable Care Act subsidies... "We want to fix it so it works. Obamacare has been a disaster for the people. So we want to have it fixed."
