The Democrats can do social programs,

But won't.

Obamacare. Try voting and moving the Overton window and they can do more.

I do vote. The window keeps moving to the right. To the point where a handout to the insurance industry is considered a social program.

Just think about how much worse it could be.

Oh, I'll just have to wait. The overton window isn't going to move to the left. It's already so far to the right that the "left" party supports genocide.

Do you honestly think it hasn't moved right because Trump won? Now think what will happen if he wins again.

Ps you're what the meme is about. Except the meme is wrong, didn't save anything because Trump would escalate it.

And there it is, like clockwork.

The assumption that anyone who doesn't love genocide must be a Trump supporter.

And there it is, the strawman.

Cheers.
