Bullshit. Where’s the outrage from the people screeching about Republicans Gerrymandering?
There is none. They’re actively cheering the Democrats coming out and saying, “If Republicans are going to copy our tactics and Gerrymander, which we invented, then WE will Gerrymander EVEN HARDER!”
This is the “nuclear option” all over again. Democrats used the nuclear option to force through presidential nominees, then got pissed off when Republicans followed suit.
I call out hypocrisy when I see it. Democrats have been Gerrymandering since 1820, but you seem to be perfectly fine with it. Therefore, it’s fine when Republicans do it too, because turnabout is fair play.
If someone brings a sword to a boxing match, they shouldn’t be surprised when the other person brings their own sword.
I actually have to correct myself. The Bidens were off limits, now that I think of it. It could also be that Matt and Trey’s lawyer is also Hunter Biden’s lawyer.
No, but you seem to be. Do you honestly think the Democratic Party doesn’t jerrymander every chance they get?
Noem and Trump have to realize one very important thing.
Matt and Trey don’t give a shit and no one is off limits.
It was also full of Democrat shenanigans that they knew the Republicans would not vote for, so they tossed in jerrymandering, knowing the bill would never pass to make it look like they were for it.
Without jerrymandering, the Democrats would lose many seats because they’d no longer be able to take large swaths of rural and suburban areas, then make a wonky looking maps to link them to cities to ensure the suburban and rural voters get outvoted by the urban voters. They’d also no longer be able to carve out mostly black districts that they have no chance of ever losing.
Without their jerrymandering, they wouldn’t have single party control of Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
Sounds like you’re just upset that the Republicans are following the Democrats’ lead. It’s like watching a kid cheat in a game, then watch the kid get upset when the other kid also starts cheating.
No, they simply call for “bail/prison reform” to let them back out on the streets, then try to wrap it in flowery language to mask the truth of what they are doing.
They both do it. Democrats are just the ones who invented it, then like everything they do, they cry victim when the Republicans also do it and try to act like they’re filled with righteous indignation knowing that they also jerrymander.
I don’t think Democrats can Jerrymander much harder than they have been since 1812.
Democrats won’t fight for standard anything because they would lose many, MANY seats in their own states because they’ve been Jerrymandered all to hell to ensure that non Democrat voters are always the minority in their districts.
And you pretend that the Democrats haven’t been doing this since they were the Democratic Republican Party.
Over a century. It all started with the Democratic Republican Party that eventually became the Democratic Party.
Oh no. anyway, here’s a map of Illinois’ congressional districts.
Being a child diddler has no religion. Even with Islam the people who advocate for child marriage still hold the same morals.
“Democracy” is Donkeyspeak for “Our ability to hold onto power” You can replace the word “Democracy” in anything they say with “our ability to hold onto power” and it works.
“Donald Trump is an existential threat to our ability to hold onto power!” “This bill is an attack on our ability to hold power!”
There’s also a REASON why Democrats will flee but not file a lawsuit to stop it. If a judge decides, “Jerrymandering and drawing congressional districts based on race is illegal!” the Democratic Party collapses because of how much they’ve Jerrymandered their own states to ensure that they maintain a single party system as much as possible.
no, no, this was established in 2020. SAFE AND SECURE! Don’t be an election denier!
It’s cute how you think Democrats “ripping up the rulebook” is because Republicans did it.
Remember that the Democrats exercised the nuclear option first, much to the cheering of their followers, who then got upset because Republicans turned around and did it too. Democrats were also the first to Gerrymander, but were known as the Democratic Republican Party at the time.
Same party in an unbroken chain of mentors and mentees going all the way back to the Democratic Republican Party who have been gerrymandering for over a century.
It’s the same party, try to justify supporting them as you please.
It’s the opposite. the Democrats have been doing it for 100 years so it’s fine for Texas to do it.
