Did you ever think you would see an American president casually drop gerrymandering a state in order to stay in power like he was ordering a BLT or something? Trumps's and these right wing republican policies have proved so unpopular it seems the republicans are set to lose in the next election. Instead of enacting policies supported by the voters Republicans would rather cheat votes out of Texas.

This is the era of no shame. Maga doesn't even blink, not a peep.

Could the Republican party get any lower?

Are you this stupid that you think this is a republican thing only.


See that long blue section.

Gerrymandering needs stopped all together, both sides. But it seems like Texas is going mask off with Trump's support with their gerrymandering. If it's going to be like that then blue states need to respond as well. Someone on reddit drew a map that would turn all Cali seats blue:

If they all states start to gerrymander, Liberals will never win again

Yes.

They know that the current Republican golden age is due entirely to Trump and cultural issues.

Well, Trump is gone in 2028 and cultural issues have to be constantly stoked.

Which is why stupid shit like "gender affirming care!" and Sydney Sweeney are becoming so popular now. As usual, they fail with policy so they gotta lean extra heavy on identity. The libs are "against" (which means, "this handful of liberals tweeted this") Sydney Sweeney so keep supporting the GOP.
 
isn't this what newsom is also doing in california?
isn't the dem policy to airdrop thousands of somalis or haitians in red cities part of affecting the vote?
isn't allowing millions upon millions of immigrants in, with the possibility of granting some amnesty and suddenly you have possibly tens of millions of dem voters shuffled strategically in red states also a strategy to affect the vote?

both parties are doing whatever they can for power. i don't see any difference.
and spare me the "muh trumper" replies. i consider him a fucking idiot.
 
Electoral maps and judicial appointments should be completely apolitical.

They never will be, but they should be. I think humans are too imperfect to ever design a system that can't be abused by other humans.
Agree they should. Some of the ones I've seen are beyond ridiculous.
 
They won every swing state and won the popular vote, the presidency and hold the supreme court. Democrats have a 20% approval rating

The way Trumps ratings are dropping, he might soon be at 20%. He is hemorrhaging young and minority voters. He is still popular with the MAGA crowd and last one I saw, 47% would be OK if Trump was guilty of the Epstein stuff.

Yeah, Biden did it with Illinois in 2021.

I want to say it should be an easy fix, it's obviously true and could be legislated.

I just don't think that even in light of the miracle of that legislation passing, anyone would create a system that wouldn't immediately be abused or circumvented.

Have you ever heard a president order up some gerrymandering like he was getting a BLT?

Where is your shame dude? Do you like gerrymandering or something?

Our leaders should be taking us to a better place, not a worse one. How can you defend this shit? WTF??
