HA!! So, "Trump started gerrymandering"?

That might be a little difficult since Gerrymandering goes all the way back to the early 1800's !!  ...and more recently, it's happening all across America by both Democrats and Republicans... BUT, I don't think ANY state is worse than what the Virginia Democrats have proposed (which will probably be overturned as "UNCONSTITUTIONAL"), but where they tried to COMPLETELY SILENCE 49% of Virginia Voters (actually something like 45% of Virginia voters)... and will FAIL !!

Virginia, tried to give 90% of the states Representatives to the Democrats, when the actual vote totals were almost exactly 50/50 (51% to 49% actually) !

WHAT do you say we just DO AWAY with Gerrymandering NATION WISE?  ...and pass a law where the states Representatives are broken up BASED on the "Dem/Rep/Ind" Voter totals... to the nearest percent?  So... (States Total Reps.)/(Percentage of Legal Dem/Rep/Ind Votes)?  It do it ANY other way is SCREWING the American voter !!

BUT, I don't think Democrats would do it... because they are STILL getting more representatives than they should... and they KNOW it !!

trump started gerrymandering this election when he told texas and all  republican governors including missouri to give him more districts. and when missouri voters objected he told them to throw out the petitions signed by the voters
