A new meme has flooded social media, showing a stark difference between voters in 2016 in 2018. The "me then vs me now" pics imply a dramatic shift from the youthful optimism of Democratic supporters ahead of the presidential election two years ago towards their hopelessness — and sometimes warlike determination.
Online users have delivered scores of Game of Thrones references in the first place.

In the days leading up to the election, many American celebrities were calling on the voters to go out and put their ballot in the ballot box. Dwayne Johnson might have also contributed to the increased turnout with his Photoshop skills.
