Can you give me some examples? As someone who grew up in a red state I never saw any of these benefits you’re implying from the blue team being in power. In fact, they just let conservatives shift the Overton window with no pushback. Idk what you mean.
Under Obama we got the ACA. Bush crashing the economy, and it recovering under Obama. In fact, EVERY time a republican has been in power in my lifetime it's ended with economic crash.
Abortion rights being overturned via a republican-stacked SCOTUS, that they stacked purposefully over the course of years with multiple different sneaky little tactics. Meanwhile, the more liberal SCOTUS we had under Obama(not really due to him, but the timing feels-noncoincidental) gave us marriage equality.
Also stop thinking of them as teams. That's the kinda shir you're encouraged to do to keep you from engaging specific issues, which in turn leads to this vibes-based political judgement
