Obama "We can't lose focus on what matters - right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year's midterm elections," Obama wrote. "This is a power grab that undermines our democracy."

Comment:
Obama is exploiting the ignorance of the Democrat voters again.
Obama knows that the Democrat Party gerrymandered the congressional districts in the Blue States.
He doesn't accuse the Democrats of "a power grab that undermines our democracy" when they gerrymander.
He is who undermined our democracy when he illegally used the CIA, FBI and DOJ as his political weapons.

Your Supreme Court should weigh in on this and force all states to just have your districts divided by a perfect grid of equal sized areas.

It will be equally imperfect for everyone but more logical and symetrical

The Democrats have always gerrymandered districts as well.

In Pennsylvania, they stole seats from the Republicans using the Far Left PA State Supreme Court.

The maps have been rigged in NY, Cali, Massachusetts, Maryland and Illinois for decades as well.

Bullshit, there is of course gerry-mandaring on both sides, but Republican controlled states are BY FAR the biggest offenders and there is no precedent on Democratic side for the scope of what Texas Republicans are up to this year.

It is these BRAZEN Republican power grabs that force Democrats into recieprocation.

Texas Republicans are not responding to something supposedly unfair that Democrats did, they simply want more Congressional seats and power for Trump and they shamelessly say so. There is no other reason and we are opening yet another can of shit in American politics where all that matters is power grabbing as much as you can, which ever way you can.

Everyone is against gerrymandering when they aren’t the ones doing it. As I have said before outrage of convenience is no outrage at all it’s not the act that upsets them just who is doing it.

Are you outraged at brazen Texas Republican gerymandering?

Lets see your NOT-selective outrage.

And then explain why Democrats should just sit on their hands, take it and not reciprocate.

The Progressive states are corrupted with gerrymandering. You control those states with an iron vice. The New England States look like a King George Kingdom. The total Northeast states look like a British Empire dictatorial influence. A small area with so much power. This is just to start.

Let's not also forget that when you purposely let a bunch of migrants cross the border illegally in order to get more House representation and electoral votes for your state, that is a form of gerrymandering as well.

Wrong again dude

If you were me, would you take your comment seriously?

 

[task0778]

Democrats are always against Gerrymandering unless they're the ones doing it.

Brazen does not equal unfair or illegal. So, why would someone feel outrage? The Left is trying to demonize Republicans for doing the same thing Democrats do when they are in power.

If anything, I am outraged at the selective outrage demonstrated by the likes of Obama who are full of shit hypocrites on the issue. Show me the bi-partisan group or independent group that wants to rid gerrymandering.

 

[AntonToo]

Brazen does not equal unfair or illegal.

ooooh, so you are saying it's fair to redraw districts in funny geometrical shapes because you know your party can't otherwise win the votes there?

Fair? You have got to be out of your mind.

Let's be real for a second. BOTH sides are guilty of gerrymandering their areas.

Obama just doesn't like it when he doesn't have his ideal gerrymandering.

The Left is trying to demonize Republicans for doing the same thing Democrats do when they are in power.

It's NOT SAME and I've showed national analisys that proves it.
