Trump 47

[Polds4OSU]

Yeah, he can't do that. He tried to during his first term and was told he couldn't. One of the darker moments in our history is the 3/5ths compromise. It was beyond reprehensible but it established that everyone here, regardless of status gets counted.

And even if he could it won't happen fast enough to impact mid terms. The census bureau would have to draft short and long forms and have them approved. They would need to hire thousands of federal workers before they got to even hiring the actual census takers. Everyone needs to be tested and trained. I was in college during the 2000 census and got a job as a census taker. I had to take a basic skills test as part of the application process and I know for a fact that they have a bunch of applicants who dont know things like math or if assault with a deadly weapon is a felony. It takes time to week through all of the applicants.

Even if they pull off the physical census in 12 months, the data would still have to be evaluated and states will have to figure out how to parse out new districts. That takes months to figure out.

Trump has ordered his Commerce Department to change the U.S. Census in a move that could significantly bolster his chances at the next election.

I thought we eliminated three term presidents with FDR. What a gigantic pos! But the clear winner in the most un-American president contest EVER. When will the Congressional toadies and MAGAstanis tire of all this “winning”.

I thought the 14 th amendment to the Constitution prevented insurrectionist from EVER holding office in the United States. Guess felonious tRump’s power is above the law. The man WAS convicted. Pardoning him doesn’t change the Constitution does it? If so my claim that masked ICE members could be highly rewarded Proud Boys etc. could be true.

This is ridiculous. At some point common sense has to take hold.

don't need the US and moves on. Honestly, it could be one of the biggest unifying events the world has ever seen.

I don’t think tRump needs any of our help destroying our country. He and the rebumplican Congress, and political Justice department are working feverishly in all areas simultaneously . I certainly do NOT wish them well.

That's a little disingenuous. Several of the red states only have one congressional representative. Hard to gerrymander when there is no lines to draw. And the Democratic states are two of the smallest in the nation. I don't see how you can make a fair district in either of those states

MAGA and common sense is a venn diagram with zero intersection.
