Guys, the democrats are hypocrites because of the way the census was taken while Trump was president!!!!1111111
 
Again, why do you believe that all of the immigrants would vote Democrat when the last election demographics would indicate that to be wrong? This is the same talking point the pubs were using when I voted for bush. It's not defendable, but it makes the cult feel good about the right wanting to keep citizens from voting based on a made up myth. But we know that much of the cult is beholden to myth, so it's understandable that the same myth is working 20 years later.

No matter how it is spun, the bottom line is that there is very little fraud and the real goal is to minimize who can vote by keeping voting eligible citizens from being able to easily vote.
C'mon man,

The GQP is a minority party representing a minority of Americans. What would you recommend they do in order to stay in power ?

Article I Sections 2 and 3 helps them out as a minority party , but sometimes that advantage is not sufficient to win elections so would it not make sense for GQPers to beat the drum about non existent voter fraud and implement strategies to deny and suppress the vote ?

The question is , do you really want the country to be governed by a majority party that promotes policies that a majority of the country supports ?

It is true that the GQP has been a horrible governing party for decades when it comes to improving the lives of working and middle class families, but maybe it makes sense to have a party in charge that makes sure the top 10% maintain and expand the wealth gap between the beleaguered rich and the rest of America.

Because this is a Fox News article,I looked for a rebuttal article in leftist media but couldn’t find anything to discredit it so I’m going to say it’s likely believable. Of course I’m open to retract that if anyone has evidence to the contrary. This is one of your rising stars and a possible 2028 potus candidate hopefully.

 
Yep, as it rigs the system in favor of dims? He might get denied by the courts but it’s worth the effort.

Actually, it doesn't, because according to 2022 data from the Pew Research Center, some of the states with the highest percentages of illegal immigrants in their populations are ones that regularly send Republicans to Congress and award their electoral votes to Republican candidates. Nevada, a swing state, tops the list with 5.8 percent of its population being undocumented. But Trump’s home state of Florida comes third, with 5.2 percent. Arizona and Georgia—two other swing states—are all in the top fifteen on the list, with undocumented immigrants making up between 3.2 and 3.5 percent of their populations.

But the biggest kahuna is Texas, coming second overall with an undocumented population percentage of 5.4 percent. That’s enough people—some 1.6 million—for Texas to lose two House seats and Electoral College votes if Trump’s plan comes to fruition. Imagine how mad Republicans would be if he makes them draw two new sets of district maps back-to-back and they end up with barely anything to show for it.
 
C’mon, you don’t actually think this census gambit is on the up and up. Zero - Zee Row - chance the Trump census con results in anything short of ten extra seats for gqpers.
Oh, absolutely, I totally expect maximal GOP ratfuckery. That's a given at this point.

I think that an all-out gerrymandering pissing match would look something like this:

Texas eliminates 5 Dem seats. California responds by eliminating 5 Pub seats. Missouri eliminates a Dem. Maryland eliminates a Pub. Florida eliminates 5 Dems. Illinois, Oregon, and New York eliminate 5 Pubs. Ohio eliminates 2 Dems. Indiana and Nebraska eliminate 2 Dems. That would leave a net GOP gain of 4 seats. Maybe California could get really petty and draw out 9 Pub seats, or maybe Washington and New Jersey get involved, too.
 
He's pretty much just a useful idiot to any country willing to put the time, effort and money into using him.
I think this should have always been the attack. Not that he’s intentional colluding- that he’s so ignorant and corrupt that you can’t tell the difference between his behavior and that of a double agent

If the dims are the majority party and promote policies that a majority of the country supports wouldn’t a majority of the country have voted for the dim candidate rather than the minority candidate and his policies that a majority don’t support? That did happen right?

How many could Massachusetts draw out?

It looks like Fox "News" is quoting a "report" from the very well respected New York Post so I am going to accept this "report" as accurate and reject any suspicion that it is a bs story published to appease Trump because Jasmine called out Trump a couple of days ago.
 

🎁 —> Trump Directs Military to Target Foreign Drug Cartels (Gift Article)


“… The order provides an official basis for the possibility of direct military operations at sea and on foreign soil against cartels.

U.S. military officials have started drawing up options for how the military could go after the groups, the people familiar with the conversations said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive internal deliberations.

But directing the military to crack down on the illicit trade also raises legal issues, including whether it would count as “murder” if U.S. forces acting outside of a congressionally authorized armed conflict were to kill civilians — even criminal suspects — who pose no imminent threat.…”

I cannot deny that, unlike in 2016 and 2020, voters gave Trump a plurality of the vote in 2024.

Unfortunately , the voters who are registered to vote and free from voter suppression do not represent the majority of all Americans...but Callatoroy knows that;)

Poll after poll after poll over years show that a majority of Americans whether voting or not support Democratic policies with regard to every major issue.
