I was pondering this statement by our President - especially the 'cannot allow', 'if they have to vote twice, so be it', and 'should demand that the State Legislatures do'. I decided to look into what law there was around redistricting right before an election. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

I live in OR-2, the only red district in Oregon. It would be a piece of cake to gerrymander it out of existence. That would require actual courage on the part of the Dems, though.

Curious when people will start recognizing that we no longer have a working system capable of supporting any semblance of a functioning democracy? That legitimate power has left the building.... The saviors aren't coming. We the People must save ourselves! unruledmasses.org

If Dems follow through it absolutely becomes a win. Bc red states were already gerrymandered to fuck so they will only pick up a few. And this is all assuming red seats wouldn’t flip to blue anyway bc of how angry people are. We don’t need to convert MAGA, we just need them to not bother to vote.

If the dissolution of the US wasn’t something that Putin craves with what passes for his heart, I would be willing to consider letting the South go.

Redistricting is patently fraudulent by both parties. They are attempting to pre-determine elections outcomes with no regard for third parties. This is not Democracy. This is a Duopoly Scam playing Political Theatre.

Primaries disenfranchise about 45% of potential voters registered as Independent or Other Parties. Also, 89 million Americans don't vote, so a very small percentage of voters actually control the slim majority in Congress. It's a BROKEN SYSTEM.
