Remember near the end of Obama’s presidency, when people were complaining that he couldn’t get anything done because congress was standing in his way, blocking his nominees and keeping his goals from turning into legislation?

That’s because in the 2014 midterm elections, Republicans gained control of the Senate, and as a result held both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Obama was still president. But Republicans had congress, and that gave them power.

Imagine if every time Trump wanted to put out a new travel ban, or give ICE more power to go after families, or roll back environmental protections, or protections for trans people against discrimination, he had to face the level of resistance in congress that Obama did. 

Whether a democratic congress would oppose Trump out of principles or simply out of partisanship, they would make life harder for him.

JUST 

FUCKING

VOTE

TO 

GIVE 

TRUMP
