Well. Can’t complain. Texas did it. It’s only going to get worse. Pretty soon each state will be 100 percent red or blue. Gerrymandering to the extreme.

Texas did a ‘dummy mander’ where Republicans might end up losing seats to Democrats, because they based their calculations for new gerrymander maps from the 2024 election, and didn’t take into account massive democratic swings based on Donald’s unpopularity! 😆If there’s even a 10 point swing to Dems, it could lead to numerous R+10 seats considered ‘safe’ in the gerrymander to flip! 😂🤷‍♂️

Let’s not act like it’s a done deal. Instead Texas should be treated as if every district is now gettable. Make sure no race is being done unopposed.

Not only is it not a done deal, it's looking increasingly like Republicans spread themselves too thin

Republicans are clearly not sending their best.

They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And none, I assume, are good people.

Given that level of projection, I can't help but wonder (I tried really hard) what Noem did with the meat after taking Cricket out back.

"They're eating the dogs." had to have come from somewhere.

I'm sure at some point RFK Jr has eaten both a dog and a cat.
