We can only hope that old Lindsey Graham quote is true,
“If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed … and we will deserve it.”It would be great if he could be correct about something, just this once.
Unfortunately, the “we” in that sentence applies to the whole nation at this point.
We are literally seeing the decline of an empire. America’s last days are ahead. When we abandon representation and abandon rule-of-law the way we have, we have no future.
Not saying we shouldn’t redistrict in response, we literally have to in order to keep states from being bullied into submission, but this process, as it snowballs, will be one of the most pivotal points that students will have to understand in the history books.
Except it feels like the opposite is happening. I mean, here he is at round 2 of a presidency. Nobody learned anything, and there’s certainly not been any destruction. Everything has been swept under the rug.
certainly not been any destruction
Tell that to the US’s global reputation.
I’m thinking more against the actors perpetrating it. They just keep skating by.
It will eventually come true, but the U.S. is going to suffer a lot of pain before it happens.
When gerrymandering was in the news 15 years ago, I was frustrated at how little was done to make things fair again.
Now I don’t care. Fuck it. Destroy the conservative right.
Seriously! All I’ve seen from the right is outright, obvious lies & pedophiles. I don’t care about going high anymore, it doesn’t work when legit 1 third of the country is willingly watching propaganda. Kick em in the nuts, poke their eyes, throw salt in their face, use every dirty trick they did. Don’t listen when they whine and cry. Just point and laugh, and say “what dafuq you gunna do about it bitch?”
Californian here.
Hope we can just run these fucking pedo rapist supporters out of our state like the fascists they are. If they like Texas so much, they can go there. They just have to let the women in their lives know that they’ll lose rights the moment they cross the border into Texistan.
As a Texan: Please no, we have far too many already.
When the country finally splits apart, and Texas becomes independant, we’ll have to run airlifts to send enough supplies to keep Austin weird
oh that ship has sailed
Don’t spoil the surprise for them
Westside Represent!
It’s tit for tat for repubs stealing seats in Texas. If they dont like it they shouldnt have done it.
They’re playing 1D chess over there.
They could also try representing their constituents.
Just a thought.
some see ‘extinction level event’ if party loses
Oh no! Won’t someone think of the fascists!
Fuck. We can only hope they extinctify themselves in an on-brand tantrum. Ugh. Fuckem.
Hang in there, Boomer!
I hope its an extinction level event for them.
If it’s not, it’ll be an extinction level event for all of us.
Theres a reason those rich shits are building doomsday bunkers.
There’s also a reason I’ll be blocking their air vents with cement.
Make sure to toss in some anthrax for good measure.
Oh no did you play with redistricting fire not realizing you might get burned 😢
Good.
Then move to Texas, where the Democrats can’t even put up a fight so Republicans run unopposed in many races. No shade on them though, it costs time and money to do things and the government actively goes after Democrats running for anything, accusing them of malfeasance at every step.
Womp Womp
You got rid of kings and low taxes and where did that bring you…
Are you actually advocating for monarchy?
That’s a nice safe seat you have there. It’d be a shame if your election became competitive…
