        Are there more examples of this happening? One event isn’t a very good sample size… “IT DIDN’T WORK GUYS, SEE?!”, I mean, sure… But there are more circumstances and variables and conditions to an election lol.

          How many times do you want to move to the right and not back to the left? How many more times will it take to satisfy you?

          Pray tell, how is strengthening unions & workers rights

          Strikebreaking and photo ops didn’t strengthen shit.

          forgiving student loans

          Was the only bright spot in his presidency.

          Now how was supporting a genocide “left?” I mean, it may be to your left. Maybe you want active participation?

          If the republicans win, it goes further right. If the democrats win, it stays where it is. So the only movement is to the right, never left.

            That simply explains what’s visible in the image, not whatsoever why.

            If the democrats win, it stays where it is.

            Like, why is this the general assumption?

            If this were true, there wouldn’t ever have been a democratic president, right? Except maybe once in the beginning?
