Americans voted for Barack Obama in 2008 despite, not because of, his most partisan voting record in the Senate.
The reality by 2013 was that voters got an increasing hard-core liberal-progressive revolution that, after Obama's 2012 reelection, increasingly polarized America over the reach of the federal government, immigration, and race.
Obama had hit on something in his move to the hard left.
The reelection of Obama had convinced progressives that he had discovered electoral magic: record voter registration, turnout, and block voting of "Minorities" that could overcome the old Perot, Reagan Democrat, silent majority, and tea-party dinosaurs in the critical swing states.
The appearance and success of the polarizing Donald Trump supercharged the ongoing progressive revolution.
The 2018 Democratic midterm victory in the House was not seen in historical context: Trump in fact had fared much better in both the House and Senate in his first midterm than had either Bill Clinton or Barack Obama at that point in their presidencies, both of whom were easily reelected, while mostly centrist candidates had given the Democrats the new House majority.
Preemptory charges of "Voter suppression" have made required prior registration and voter IDs veritable racist crimes, as voter harvesting and fluid same-day registration and voting are the hallmarks of the future, even as open borders change the demography of the nation.
