' “If they’re going to bring (Texas) up, I’m going to say, ‘Well, we’re just doing what you guys taught us to do,’” Hovis said. '
Nice try. While there is plenty of gerrymandering to point at, Texas is very specifically doing this crap now at the illegal whining of a giant man-child that needs a buffer zone to keep from being told no. California declaring it's going to do the same thing is not the same thing since it's only being proposed to keep things even. It would be different if they were going all out and trying for more than 5 counters to the Texas 5.
I'd also argue you can't teach a MAGAt anything.
