This. the GOP cannot win on ideas or policy, so it resorts to disenfranchising and cheating.

Have you even looked at the maps for NY, IL, and CA????
You must not have because otherwise you would have never made the comment above.

IL and CA could almost make it so there are no GOP districts, but they didn't do that, did they. NY left 5+ seats on the table - Dems could be controlling the House right now.

Imagine in another country a corrupt president was trying to change the election laws.

Then that president's political ally threatened to remove all the legislators of the other party to get it done.

That's what's happening in Texas right now.

Why even have a vote in Texas?

How could Dems rig a vote 30 points in a deep red state?

Remember when Republicans fled Oregon when they weren’t happy?

Amusing to see the Gang of Pedophiles freak out when democrats use anything resembling hardball tactics. They are so used to dishing it out and watching democrats play fair, they go nuts as soon as they get a small taste of their own medicine.

There are like 17 red states that have an entire population less than the number of Democrats in Texas.

And Biden didn’t threaten to have them arrested?

You must not have because otherwise you would have never made the comment above.

The proposed map in Texas looks less gerrymandered than the current map, with compact districts. Illinois has some salamander districts.

Have you seen Ohio or Wisconsin? GOP gerrymandered the heck out of those states.
