Wow,
Not true, it looks so from where you're sitting. But politics change a lot over time.
It's slow moving and in a two party system, you are unlikely to see big differences between either side.
That said, the world would have looked differently had Hilary won in 2016.

This tired and ignorant take is so frustrating to continue to see, especially after the Trump win.
