Late last August, the Texas Republicon governor and legislature unceremoniously and unilaterally voted to gerrymander their voting districts to favor the Republicon party. Fast forward to today, here in California, our Governor Newsom has decided to counter that move by promoting Proposition 50, in an attempt to equalize the Texans partisan move.
While the new slogan “Fight fire with fire” does have some meaning in this situation, other expressions come to mind. “No more Mr. Niceguy” seems appropriate. How about “What’s good for the goose is good for the gander”? “Seeing the forest through the trees” has a nice ring, too.
There are some key differences that need to be observed between these two political moves. For one thing, everyone knows that the Texas redistricting is the result of the Texas legislature and governor that unilaterally changed the district voting boundries has already occurred.

Since when did protesting become something the Republicon MAGA right wing nuts speak of with distain? It seems they only criticize their political opponents. Screaming at the top of their lungs about violence and blaming all the crimes on the protesters. Of course, it's always the evil Democrats who are looting and burning. Which is utterly false. At the same time they defend the violence and pardoning of the January 6th rioters. Who were flying Trump banners at the same time. Law and order, indeed!
These are the same “people” that display their flags every Flag Day, Veterans Day, and Memorial Day as if that makes them better than those who are protesting. These are the people who speak of protestors as if they are doing something bad, and should be deported. The same people who scream about following the Constitution, which specifically protects freedom of speech and protest.

In other words: "Let Them Eat Cake…" Oh yeah, I remember, Only Tramp can fix it! While Tramp and his Republicon enablers trash the economy of the entire world needlessly. Perhaps harsh and sweeping arbitrary tarrifs wasn't such a great idea. Those of us who aren't billionaires would hope our elected leaders were more experienced with such matters that affect the economy.
The man called Trump never worked for anyone else a day in his life. Tramp and his minion DOGEbags love to fire perfectly good productive government employees without any attempt to identify any "waste, fraud, or abuse".

Lately we have been hearing a new rhetorical talking point from the party that has been espousing their supposed “transparency”. These Trumpy Republicons now specify they want educational admissions, political candidates and appointments, and governmental “deep state” positions to be “merit-based”.
You have to ask the Republicons to define their language these days. We know how they like to make things up and this often results in a different meaning for words than the rest of us. As of late, we don’t really know exactly what they mean by “merit-based”.
