Should the Democrats gerrymander ever state they have a trifecta in? Why should they put themselves at a disadvantage in the 2028 presidential elections?
Democrats now can remove all of the gerrymandering in the states they currently have control over. The districts would be redrawn by the state legislature to be more fair. They would remove all the GOP gerrymanders.
But if Trump and Republicans opposes the democrats legislation the democrats will heavily gerrymander all the states they currently have control over and change the retirement age of the state supreme courts.
So if Trump vetoes legislation Democrats heavily gerrymander one state. If he vetoes more legislation they gerrymander another state. If he vetoes more legislation they change the retirement age and appoint their own justices.
They could later negotiate with republicans to pass new Civil Rights Act banning all forms of gerrymandering and voter suppression.
They should make it fully illegal, require non-partisan committees to oversee districts, and redistrict everything based upon that. I think the that needs to be done at the state level in every state, so it does nothing for states like Ohio that are a clusterfuck.
We should also axe the electoral college, move to proportional representation, STAR (or similar) voting, expand the house, and abolish the senate, IMO.
