Several things are possible at the same time in Mexico, people are fed up with impunity and cartel violence, and Trump’s CIA is actively attempting to use those grievances to coerce the overthrow of the government.

Texas redraws the map and nobody living in Texas had any say in the matter - the White House is hyped. Best idea ever.

California residents VOTE to redraw the map & the White House is suing them.

They know if they can’t cheat, they’ll lose. Hell at this rate - they’ll probably lose regardless.
