As has been widely reported, MAGA Republicans in Texas — at the bidding of Donald Trump — have concocted a flagrantly racist and undemocratic gerrymandering scheme that would rig the 2026 congressional election in their favor to an unprecedented degree.
It’s plain to see what’s going on here:

Trump’s popularity is plummeting, and Americans overwhelmingly reject his policy agenda — which so far includes stripping healthcare from 17 million Americans, slashing taxes on the super rich, conducting heartless and cruel mass deportations, cutting off investments in renewable energy, and much, much more.

Trump and MAGA Republicans fear (for good reason) that voters will penalize them in next year’s elections. So — in a page right out of the authoritarian playbook — Trump is trying to rig the rules so that Republicans can’t lose, no matter how the people vote.
