Austin and Dallas, sure but who really believes that the actual border where the ranches are would be Blue? Of COURSE they're voting. No party cultivates such a group unless that's their ultimate goal. If it isn't stopped, this nation is done. It doesn't take a genius to prognosticate the outcome when a burgeoning welfare state has open borders. I cite the million or so who flowed in this past year. Have you ever been to Texas? Do you understand what Sessions and Perry did to south Texas, of course they are now blue counties. Those reprobates caused a lot of havoc and stole a lot of property down there. There are people who had homes on the golf course next to the river who either have to live in mexico or just walk away from their homes because of an 8 mile long wall that Sessions had built along the border, which is the river, which has laws about how close a wall can be to a river. That's just one thing, look up what the last 3 govenors of Texas have done. There are places around Dallas where you can't get from here to there without driving on a toll road unless you want to spend an extra hour driving on residential streets in a winding route. The Bush did that and Perry made it worse by expanding it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you agree that an influx of illegal immigrants CAN be used as a form of political gerrymandering for electoral advantage ? As for why I'm interested in US politics; it's because they are WAY more fascinating than UK politics. Hmmm... is it seizure if the owner is given just compensation ? So you reject the findings of the Mueller report ? I think an influx of immigrants, illegal (who would NEVER fill out the census forms to begin with) will help control the gerrymandering that goes on. That is the point of the census, to get an accurate count for representation. You would be amazed at how much gerrymandering goes on in this country, it is why Trump and Bush won. It is why some states are all "blue" and some are all "red". It is all gerrymandering. That is completely different than representation. And Gerrymandering is about political parties not number of representatives. Two different issues. It seems to me UK politics is very volatile lately, not boring, so why are you really ignoring it? If you were in Australia I might believe your politics are boring, but not the UK. I have no idea what is actually in the Mueller report. What is it you think I am rejecting that is in the Mueller report? Edited January 27, 2020 by Desertrat56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a single unified party with a huge majority and only one policy on the go. Literally nothing interesting will happen this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mueller report basicly said that Donald Trump - contrary to your earlier assertion - had NOT instigated - or collaborated with - foreign interference in the 2016 election. And other than Brexit (which is mostly done and dusted.. sort of.. ), UK Politics is EXCEEDINGLY dull at the moment.

When did I assert that Donald Trump did or did not do anything? I think I pointed out that you are confusing your laws with ours and asked why you care so much.

It said that they couldn't find proof of collaboration with foreign interference in the 2016 election. Foreign interference happened, it aided Donald Trump, and he publicly asked for it on TV and other venues. Mueller just admitted that he couldn't tie the chain together enough to indict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
