Unequal representation messes with the very foundation of democracy. Because of that things don't make any sense. The majority does not truly rule.
    Normal people learn about how government works in the 4th grade during Civics 101 class.

    You still don't get it, even though you've been repeatedly taught how it works.

    You still believe that Trump was elected President due to gerrymandering.

    Because when it comes right down to it: You are a fucking retard.

    SPOILER: This was done intentionally by the Founding Fathers. Care to guess why California has 2 Senators and Kansas also has 2 Senators?

    I realize you never finished 5th grade social studies, but the PC is under no obligation to educate you on how our founding fathers feared of the tyranny of the majority and why the word democracy is never mentioned in the Constitution.

    Instead we, the people of the PC, implore you to leave our country and go find peace & happiness living in the Social Democracy of Butt-Fucking Retards where you belong.

    If we went to a one-person one vote system Democrats would have the edge. That's why Republicans don't want to ban the gerrymander.

    In fact in the United States more people identify and are registered as Democrats than Republicans.

    The fact remains in the past 8 years Democrats have attempted to ban gerrymandaring and have been stopped by Republicans.
    Cool. What legislation did democrats introduce to do this under Biden then?

    Explain Trump winning the popular vote then.

    Explain democrats hemorrhaging voters over the past 4-5 years too.

    Stop using ChatGPT to think for you. That's what you have MSNBC for.

    I know right? We should just let losers like you do the farming.

    Like the CHAZ garden.

    That's why we're called a republic and not a democracy you fucking dumbass

    Why are you this stupid? Seriously, what is wrong with your loser brain that you can't understand basic shit like democracy vs. republic, illegal alien vs. legal immigrant, man vs. woman, etc.

    Vice President JD Vance to visit Indiana as Trump pressures GOP states to redistrict
    As President Donald Trump pressures Republican states to reopen the process of redistricting mid cycle, Vice President JD Vance is set to meet with GOP leaders in Indiana
    By ISABELLA VOLMERT Associated Press
    August 7, 2025, 3:33 AM

    Vice President JD Vance visits Indiana on Thursday to discuss redistricting with Republican leaders as President Donald Trump ramps up pressure on GOP states to redraw congressional boundaries and give the party more winnable seats in the 2026 midterm elections.

    Like I mentioned in my first post we are watching America become more fractured than ever. If thats really what Republicans want then I say go for it. Let's break it up into two countries. Red states can ban everything they want and leave the blue states the fuck alone.

    Sad thing is that even then when red states ban everything they don't like they'll turn on each other saying some reds aren't as red as others and start banning each other until there is no one left.
