America's whiplash electorate.

America's whiplash electorate. | In 2008, Americans elected Barack Obama because they desperately wanted change. Two years later, they elected a Tea Party Congress to stop Obama’s changes. Then, in 2012, they reelected Obama to stop the Tea Party Congress. Two years after that, they expanded the Republican House majority to check Obama. In 2016, they elected Donald Trump to stop everybody. In 2018, they elected a Democratic majority to stop Trump. In 2020, they chose ideological consistency by electing Joe Biden. A year later, they revolted at the polls by choosing Republicans in state and local elections because they wanted to constrain Biden. If Republicans win Congress in the 2022 midterms, it's par for the course. So what? History suggests that if anything, a Republican Congress will put Democrats in an even better position for 2024. | image tagged in usa divided,america,politics,elections,midterms,republicans | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

It's frustrating to be told "just keep voting," but it's true. Just keep voting. Democracy is a long game, and we will win.

It's frustrating to be told "just keep voting," but it's true. Just keep voting. Democracy is a long game, and we will win. | It is, of course, incredibly frustrating that Republicans - who didn't even win the 2020 election, in fact lost it by a decisive margin - nonetheless, through countermajoritarian chicanery, in 2022 succeeded in reversing a 50-year-old constitutional right by judicial fiat. In the face of this, it is easy for liberals to despair and conclude that if Republicans can pull that off, then voting doesn't really matter. That, of course, is exactly what Republicans want you to think. To a despairing liberal, I would say: Turn that logic on its head. If Republicans managed to reverse Roe v. Wade without winning the last election, then it follows that the reversal of Roe v. Wade doesn't actually carry public support. And that is what polling bears out. The United States is consistently at least 60% pro-abortion rights, and at most 40% anti-abortion rights - with very little change in those percentages over the past 40 years. By slashing away at such a popular right, Republicans have made it that much harder on themselves to win national elections in the future. So, don't despair. Keep registering your voice. Keep voting. We will win back the right to reproductive freedom, and we will make Republicans pay for it. | image tagged in pro-choice protest,abortion polling gallup,abortion,pro-choice,elections,democracy | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Democrats have all the power they need to stop this rollback of rights. We gave it to them last time we voted.

Angry people organize, register to vote, and actually do it. You don’t want the other side to be angry. Something to think about

Yeah yeah don’t get cocky — but at this rate I’m not seeing Repubs win another national election fair & square ever again.

I can only assume that if such Republicans still exist, they’re in the trash can by now :)
