So since those 45,000 aren't going to get representation, surely they won't have to deal with taxation right?
He's absolutely right. It's not a big deal, because no one will do anything about it. Republicans march toward fascism while Democrats wag their finger.
We're fucked.
Hope it's not a big deal when you suffer in your own hell for being a giant piece of shit, Landry.
Those 45,000 votes didn't go away, they were just spread across reliable Red districts, which dilutes those districts, and makes them vulnerable.
It might not matter in a normal election, but in an election where Trump is deep underwater in even strong Red districts, we might find that they eliminated one district, but ended up putting two or more other districts at risk. In an election where Dems are more motivated than ever, and MAGAs are talking about sitting it out, those new districts might be in for a surprise.
In addition, at least 36 Republican seats are unopposed, and at least some of those will be surprised flips.
Always remember the most basic MAGA Axiom: MAGA is profoundly ignorant, and virtuosically incompetent. They fuck up everything, and they will fuck this up, too.
And then they will blame Biden and Obama, and say the Dems cheated.
That is what happened in 2018, most states were (still are) heavily gerrymandered for Republicans, but they had gotten greedy and left less margin on their districts, and the president's assholeism saw them lose a bunch of those.
Between Epstein, and the betrayal of "america first," with the wars, we could see a repeat of that.
Can we MAKE it a big deal?
The votes aren't a big deal because they will be recast. His statement is therefore accurate. The big deal is the decision that prompted them to cancel the election in the first place.
