WASHINGTON cheap nike air max 2017 online , Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- One in five Americans cited the federal government as the most important problem facing the United States, down five percentage points from June but still elevated amid the tension between the White House and Congress, according to a new poll released Thursday.

Many of the respondents listed U.S. President Donald Trump, specifically, as the country's top problem, the latest Gallup poll showed.

Meanwhile cheap nike air max 2018 online , 17 percent of Americans called healthcare the most important problem, essentially unchanged from 16 percent last month.

Only seven percent of Amerians think racism or race relations as the most important problem in the United States, yet mentions about the economy continued to drop, at only six percent in August.

Immigration, a contentious issue throughout the presidential campaign and into the Trump presidency, held at seven percent.

The highest percent mentioning government as the country's most important problem in the past five years was in October 2013 during the partial shutdown of the U.S. federal government.

Factors that may have an impact on this choice include the Senate failing to pass a bill to repeal Obamacare cheap nike air max online , and Congress passing sanctions against Russia over meddling in the U.S. 2016 presidential election, Gallup analyst Art Swift said.

"So far this year, the U.S. government has consistently been top of mind when Americans are asked to name the most important problem in the U.S.," said Swift.

"The economy in general, which was the dominant concern during the Great Recession and its aftermath, remains far lower ranked today cheap air max 2017 online ," he added.

The poll results are based on telephone interviews conducted between Aug. 2 and 6, with a random sample of 1,017 adults across the country. The margin of sampling error is four percentage points.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Saturday that "only one thing will work" with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) after past talks with Pyongyang had yielded no results.

"Presidents and their administrations have been talking to North Korea (DPRK) for 25 years, agreements made and massive amounts of money paid," Trump tweeted.

"...Hasn't worked cheap air max 2018 online , agreements violated before the ink was dry, making fools of U.S. negotiators," Trump wrote. "Sorry, but only one thing will work!"

Trump did not make clear to what he was referring to in his tweets.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders later confirmed to media that all options are still on the table and she had nothing further to add at this time.

Tensions ran high on the Korean Peninsula as the DPRK conducted its sixth and most powerful nuclear test on Sept. 3.

In response, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted a new resolution tightening sanctions against Pyongyang. Later, the DPRK tested an intermediate-range ballistic missile which flew over Japan.

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson revealed during a visit to China in late September that the United States has direct channels of communication with the DPRK.

"We have lines of communications to Pyongyang. We're not in a dark situation or a blackout. We have a couple of direct channels to Pyongyang. We can talk to them ... We've made it clear that we hope to resolve this through talks cheap air max online ," Tillerson said.
