BREAKING: Texas Attorney General Moves Closer to Seeking Expulsion of Texas Democrats Texas Attorney General moves to expel Texas Democrats, Trump threatens a federal takeover of Washington, D.C., National Park Service restores Confederate monument, and much more.

Trump said Republicans are β€œentitled” to five more congressional seats under Texas GOP’s proposed maps, as Democrats fled to Illinois for a second day to deny quorum. Texas Gov. Abbott vowed to compel their return, while Illinois Gov. Pritzker warned of retaliatory redistricting.

I can’t even count how many times I think about this: β€œWhen you’re dead, you won’t even know you’re dead. It’s a pain only others feel. Same thing when you’re stupid.”

In addition to their unscrupulous cruelty & greed, the pain of the Trump administration’s stupidity is almost unbearable.

Trump called Republican Governors and AG’s in Georgia begging for just enough phony votes to let him steal the Presidency.
Now he calls Texas Governor Abbott and orders him to redraw districts to give him just enough Republican Congressional seats to steal the House & Senate Majorities.

The most important midterm elections in my long lifetime are coming. Republicans and Trump are pulling every possible trick to stack the deck with Republican voters while Democrats get removed from the voter rolls.
Trump’s order to Gerrymander Texas is only one example!

What’s really weird is how many poor-ass white trash, and weirder yet, Hispanic voters believe Trump’s ridiculous narrative that everyone is out to get him!

weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

It's bizarre to realize Trump is only 6 months in and this is the level of stupidity you're dealing with. For one thing, his mental faculties were in steep decline going in and he's going down faster than his handlers imagined. Might not be too long before JD has to take over, which was Stevens plan

People see the United States as a dangerous predator on world markets, one that you want to have less and less to do with in the years ahead because Americans can’t be trusted. The deals that the United States signed become worthless.
Deals signed in Trump 1 he killed in Trump 2.

No, it won’t reverse the trade deficit. It won’t boost manufacturing. It won’t boost U.S. exports. It won’t check American imports. And it won’t balance China. All of those things will not happen.

The problem isn't just that Donald Trump is insane and stupid, it's that he must surround himself with other insane and stupid people to make himself feel sane and smart.

Blue States have 60% of the population and almost 80% of the GDP. Cali has 52 House Seats and NY 26. Red Wyoming and Alaska have ONE Congressman each.

Christ-just look at Gym Jordan's district. He's so vote poor, his district runs through little areas until the queen has the votes. Instead of going after underage boys, he should learn the law-he can't pass the bar, and grossly incompetent to head the Judiciary & oversight committees. Censure him!

It's true that Texas is seen as a test by Trump and his administration as to whether they can have the Republican controlled state houses gerrymander voting districts to elect more Republicans to Congress. Trump has indicated other states that they are proposing to do the same thing.

Gerrymandering is illegal in every nation that upholds voters rights... Which no longer includes the USA. Therefore, America is now officially in the hands of a dictatorship.
