      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?

          I think you’re taking this a bit more seriously than it’s intended to be, but yeah, there have been Democrat presidents, but there still isn’t gun control, univseral healthcare (not even for children!), etc.

            😐… where exactly did I lose you? Just asking “What?” doesn’t really help me to answer you. What is your actual question, please?
