Nah we did the blue wave thing under Trump 1. If it was a significant shift we wouldn't have gotten Trump 2. How are you even judging this as a shift? Nothing has happened yet. Social media makes everything seem monumental and historical. We won't know if this is a significant shift until later.

Also don't use "blind" that way. Blind people can understand history and theory enough to adequately contextualize today's events. However, people with working eyes get a lot of stuff wrong.
