Let's see who is currently leading most of the top 25 countries in GDP (at least the democratic ones):

USA - the right by the largest margin since the 20s.
Japan - the right
Germany - the "right" (at least in their political spectrum, Merkel just happens to be an open borders leftist who opposes gay marriage).
UK - the right (and despite all the talk about Corbyn's moral "victory", now both the Great Britain right and the Northern Ireland right are in government, not to mention the execution of UKIP's main goal: Brexit).
France - the center (actually the globalist left but Macron is right wing on economics and the PS was wiped out).
India - the right
Italy - the left in one of the most unstable governments in Europe, lost constitutional referendum leading to Renzi's resignation, prime minister Grillo increasingly possible.
Brazil - the right (the left was impeached, continuing the trend of leftist wipeout in Latin America).
Canada - the globalist left
South Korea - the left (the right got impeached).
Russia - the right for nearly 2 decades (and more to come!).
Australia - the right
Spain - the right
Mexico - PRI crooks (one of the few realistic shots at power the left has before 2020, but if AMLO can't win painting Trump as the devil, he will never ever win).
Indonesia - the left
The Netherlands - the right
Switzerland - the right
Argentina - the right
Sweden - the left (falling apart)
Poland - the right
Belgium - the right

Going into the top 50, the right adds Norway, Israel, Denmark, Ireland, Finland and Peru.

While the left adds Austria (about to lose it), South Africa, Venezuela (in chaos), Chile (about to lose it), Portugal and Greece (the most broke country in Europe).

It seems like, all over the world, voters have rejected the left and their failed governments and the right controls a supermajority of the democratic world, has the left hit political rock bottom? In most of the developed world, immigration has made them increasingly unelectable, as America and Europe claim for its total shutdown, especially from muslim countries, leftists are also soft on radical islamic terrorism, the biggest threat to the West's survival. In Latin America, they have lost nearly all countries and might as well become unelectable because voters will not elect supporters of the disastrous dictatorship in Venezuela.

Should the left become anti-immigration to survive? Will radical islamic terrorism turn them unlectable in the developed world? The periods where its policies enjoyed the most success in America, when the New Deal coalition ruled it, came after immigration restrictions like the Immigration Acts of 1917 and 1924 and the Emergency Quota Act. When these restrictions started to be lifted, culminating on the Immigration Act of 1965, America shifted towards conservative policies that still dominate the agenda right now.

I mean, the biggest win for the left in 2016 was...the Austrian Presidential Election? An election for a figurehead, really?

In 2017 they won in South Korea after an impeachment, add 2015 and you get wins in Canada and Portugal and that's it.

How many elections have been won by social democrats lately? They have been beaten up everywhere in Europe, Spain held elections on back to back years and the PP won both, in France following disaster Flanby the PS was wiped out and had to hide itself under a third way globalist formerly from the right wing of the party to "win" the election, the Parliamentary left won 45 seats out of 577, the PS itself only 30, barely ahead of the far-left.  PVDA was wiped out in the Netherlands, Corbyn may have won some seats but Labour has lost three straight elections, Schulz effect is gone in Germany and the SPD may not even be part of a grand coalition, in Italy they are in permanent danger of losing to M5S, in Hungary their corruption led to Orban and now they poll behind Jobbik, in Poland they don't exist. The british left didn't want Brexit by a 2:1 margin, they got Brexit.

When the most relevant countries the left control in Europe are Italy, Sweden Portugal and Greece (which is far left, not socialdemocratic), you know they are screwed.
