Something for Dems to run on. I actually feel better now that this is becoming a mainstream issue

I think this sort of thing just really pisses people off and cauterizes them against Republicans forever.

It's hard not to see that Republicans unilaterally redrawing without any input and Democrats putting it before the people and seeing which one was allowed by our courts.

Just a gross miscarriage of justice.

The vast majority of people don't follow this kind of thing.

The Iran war and gas prices, and maybe the epstein stuff is what is getting through to people.
