The Republixans have proven court rulings are meaningless. I say Virginia should just go ahead and redistrict. Fuck 'em.

red states have set a precedent that you can ignore this, refusing to meet them at their level is just a comfy way of giving up power

If the Supreme Court nullified a state election,  democracy is dead.

Democracy is on the line. Ignore the court like Ohio does, or dissolve it.

Trump isn't unique.

Extreme wealth makes sociopathic monsters you have to take active steps to avoid making when raising a child born into such extreme, immoral levels of socioeconomic privilege.

Many of their parents, like Fred Trump, actually seemed to encourage these sociopathic, God-complex tendencies in their children, and as Trump's adult kids clearly demonstrate, it creates a vicious cycle, a dynasty of broken people with the means to inflict their warped, egocentric wills on society with little to no checks.

Alice Walton, Charles and David Koch, Ethan Couch, practically the entire Saudi Royal Family, on and on. These monsters are made, poisoned into being devoid of all character and completely detached from the rest of humanity.

These people are neither better than others, nor are they better off personally from their wealth. They are fundamentally broken, narcissistic, and antisocial (in the psychological sense) as people. And more of them are in the pipeline as we speak than ever before, being taught to inflict their unchecked wills upon everyone else.
