The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

Democrats will be outraged! However, Nancy and Chuck will “reluctantly” allow it.

That doesn’t make a lot of sense. It also hits other border states like Texas and Arizona. In some ways, harder than states like California because there’s enough extremist wingnuts in those states who would gleefully lose Congressional representation (and federal dollars) to do this. There should be bipartisan support against it but somehow there’s not.

While Congressional representation might be part of the thinking, it seems like treating minorities and immigrants (here lawfully or not) like dirt is the main draw, like cutting off the nose to spite the face.

Here’s a Texas Monthly article going over the issue. And a Fivethirtyeight article with much the same conclusion.

Hold still.
gropes around for blunt instrument

I hope Tan the Conman does pull that stunt.

I find stuff like this simply jaw-dropping in how unacceptable it is (Reuters):

Should congressional districts be based on population including undocumented immigrants? I dunno. I would like to make them citizens, but it might make more sense to go based on voters (so no kids or prisoners either).

It would take a constitutional amendment to change it

Despite Trump administration denials, new evidence suggests census citizenship question was crafted to benefit white Republicans

My bold.

Me too in the way. I’ve worked three census’s (sp). The bureau takes it VERY SERIOUSLY. The county I work for corrects the Census Bureau’s address info (for our county). If any confidential info gets out, the people that have access to the data are on the hook for 100g and possible prison time. We spin up a server just for census data that very few people have access to.

Let him continue to fuck up and perhaps we can be rid of him. He will NEVER be a reasonable or decent person let alone President.

Tillerson says Kushner conducted foreign policy without him.

I would hope that Democrats and probably hundreds of other litigants would immediately take the Trump admin to court to force an injunction against the distribution. Anyone hopefully anyone caught violating it would probably be looking at jail time for contempt.

She was described as a “hot librarian”. Trump is allergic to books.

I don’t know if this should be under this thread, or How trump has pissed you off, or stupid republican idea, or "old story I missed, or even “hoaxes I fell for”, but this is purportedly the official poll on trump’s webpage to see how you would rather vote for:

I’ll bet 50 quatloos that JohnT’s answer is closer to what happens than asahi’s answer; any takers?

Here.

At the bottom of the page is “Paid for by Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.” which is also on what looks like an official campaign site.
Which includes an online shop.
From ICANN Whois

The Trump Organization is the registrant

Sorry! I meant to add it, but forgot.

Thanks, running coach

Not a problem.
How did you get the poll? There’s no link to be found on the website.
Cutting the URL to https://www.donaldjtrump.com/landing brings up a blank page.

We get all our political news there. :slight_smile:

Anyone remember this?
