Then please explain how this works. This image isn't doing it for me.

If the republicans win, it goes further right. If the democrats win, it stays where it is. So the only movement is to the right, never left.

That simply explains what's visible in the image, not whatsoever why.

If the democrats win, it stays where it is.

Like, why is this the general assumption?

If this were true, there wouldn't ever have been a democratic president, right? Except maybe once in the beginning?
