Republicans may have gerrymandered themselves into a blue wave, according to a legal analyst.President Donald Trump boasted last week that Republicans could remain in power for 50 years if they could get rid of the Senate filibuster, and legal analyst Michael Propok said that public statement revealed an alarming truth about GOP intentions now that the Supreme Court had cleared the way to eliminate majority-Black congressional districts."Talk about saying the quiet part out loud – holy s---" Popok said. "So there's that's where Trump and MAGA want to be, they want maps to embody it. But then, fortunately, even though Alabama's already run to court to try to get maps that were thrown out waiting for the Callais decision, the Supreme Court decision to come out to get those racist maps back up and running. That's all the South is doing right now in places like Alabama and Mississippi, Louisiana.""They're all trying to shove, I mean, it's gone so far that in some states they had a primary that has already started, like, balloting already went out, people have already voted and they're trying to extend the time so there's no May primary deadline, push it off until June and July so they can remap," he added.However, that strategy could backfire, according to Popok."But what's good for the goose is good for the gander, and this is where 'dummymandering' comes in, which is a great term of art the Democrats have come up with, which is, 'We can do it, too, so let's squeeze out five more seats here and there in all of our districts if that's what you want,'" he said."But 'dummymandering' also refers to the law of unintended consequences where you spread, if you're the Republicans, you spread the red so thin of voter concentration that what was once secure districts become less secure and more purple-y," Popok added, "because you've spread them out to try to create and seed new districts, and when you have a very thin concentration of Republicans that make up a district meeting a blue wave tsunami election, which is what we're predicting with people voting and their interest in midterms, catastrophic things can happen." - YouTube www.youtube.com
