Alarm Bells Are Ringing At DNC

I mean, didn't Texas just get finished aggressively redistricting more GOP seats into existence in their state? In the House of Representatives at this point, it's more accurate to say that the representatives get to choose their voters, rather than the other way around.

Austin, TX, for example, is parceled up into the corners of 7 different districts, just so that a large population of liberals will be diluted into several mostly conservative districts. It's grotesquely undemocratic. Then again, the Southern US has always had a thing against democracy. :/
Kudos to you for saying it so clearly --- "it's more accurate to say that the representatives get to choose their voters, rather than the other way around."

Admittedly, when possible, Democrats try to do this too, but there is no question whatever that the GOP is the Grand Champion sine qua non.

I fear so too! I am also worried Biden will not be able to run for a second term, However, I do expect the inflation rate to drop below five precent by 2024, this economic improvement should then hopefully switch voter sentiment in favor of Democrats.
Keep dreaming.

Worried? Why do you want an Alzheimer's patient in the white house?
I am concerned Biden might be somewhat cognitively challenged, but I am confident Jill Biden, Susan Rice, Ron Klain as well as the rest of team Biden will help President Joe Biden preside over their Cabinet meetings.

I almost fully agree with the Green Party platform, but I fear my vote for a Green Party candidate would be a wasted vote, Hence, I vote the lesser of two evils between Democrats and Republicans,
Meanwhile, your idol is voting Republican.

Yep. Some work the arms, others work the legs.

Perfect president. A bastion of health and vigor!

You keep dreaming.

But here's how it happens -- as history has shown: when a society lets its immediate fears and concerns cause it to accept "remedies" that it would once have rejected as immoral or evil, then it is ready to be commandeered by those who directed those fears in the first place.

And not so very long after, as we've seen time and again in history, what was once considered inconceivable suddenly becomes inevitable.

And when that happens, open the camps, get the cattle cars ready, and order up the Zyklon B.

When demonstrating I'm not a threat to Canada when attempting to migrate there, will assuring them I'd be more like to carry out an attack against the US at Canada's request than the other way around work? Or might that be considered too crazy rather than too "get me the hell away from the nutters before they shoot me"?

Did you vote on them? I didn't vote on them. Jill is the First Lady, but much like with Trump they need to seriously bugger off with their ideas off turning the White House into a family business.
No undemocratic family running it. No dynasties. It's a House of People, not a House of Noble Families.

Assuring us you'd rather not attack anybody would be much better.

And we've always had a soft spot for conscientious objectors.

Suggest you read the entire linked article. But I will quote a part of th article for your perusal
The special election was unique in that it was held under the previous lines of the 34th District, which President Joe Biden won by only 4 percentage points. But redistricting made the district more friendly to Democrats in N

On Tuesday night, Flores most notably carried Cameron County, the most populous county in the district and a longtime Democratic stronghold along the Mexican border. She defeated Sanchez there by about a percentage point after Biden carried the county by 13 points in 2020ovember, when the Democratic nominee is U.S. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, D-McAllen.

Be nice if you would at least take some time to read before going off half-cocked

What are they going to do about the puppet masters, or maybe they help hold the strings.

No, because that's not the right question to ask. It's a dead horse by now and has been analyzed inside and out. And it does change the set of questions that must be asked when the winner was the popular loser.
If it has been analyzed then why did people choose Trump over Clinton?
