The Trump Presidency 2.0

[The Quartermaster]

The parallels are there though. We just saw what happens when a sanctuary state pencil whips a CDL for an illegal and people in Florida were murdered because of it.

I want to punch the left in the throat when they start navel-gazing and clutching pearls regarding gerrymandering. They are acting quite the victim when they feed the beast themselves.

Pretty much every party everywhere has done this, but it was pretty egregious in 1980's and 90's Florida. My lifelong Democrat dad even sneered at what his party was doing, though some of that was along racial lines, but whatever.

Anyway, let's check in on Florida's current Congressional districts, I'm sure they are...

Jesus Christ.

Florida's 1990s redistricting and Bush v Gore became full 3-hour full-semester poli sci classes.

This issue specifically has tapped me out for whattaboutism. It's the whole conversation.

There are way more red states that could redistrict and gain seats than blue states (becausee by and large the blue states got to the gerrymandering first because they want to win, they don't care about the principle).

Every. Red. State. Should. Re. District. Now. Every single one of them.

There are no rules, there are no precedents, there is no moral high ground. The only people using that argument are projecting by accusation.

I am sick of the GOP's adherence to "principles". I want them to win, move fast, break things, and let the outrage be the outrage.

Illinois looks really shady because this reminds me of it by the shape, and the dems had done it there.

This article has the hilarious map of Illinois. Because irony isn't dead, the democrats who abandoned their constituents in Texas fled to Illinois.

Here is a lil interactive map that grades states on congressional/house/senate performance, both right and left. Florida playing it STRONG.

The people who run that site are either brilliant satirists or so utterly stupid as to make Rain Man look mainstream and normal. The stuff they put out is in left field.

I'm going to say they're stupid. I mean, why wouldn't you show his great hair and teeth?

Beto O'Rouke ran for PRESIDENT. This is him, now:

“Who cares about the rules right now?” O’Rourke said. “Punch back, kick back, jump over their heads and win some f***ing power.”

It was NEVER about the rules for them. It was, and is, ALWAYS about the power.
