they've gerrymandering radically.
The Supreme Court is just like, you know, like Virginia, whatever you want, Virginia can't gerrymander in response like the red states can.
But they're really, they're taking over the media in this rush because they want
If the elections go badly for them, they want the media to broadcast their narrative, narrative control.
Yeah.
Yeah, so I think – so several different issues you raised.
I think there's a big difference between Trump one judges and Trump two judges.
I think the judges that were appointed in Trump's first term, while they are far right, are still –
you know, within the bounds of sort of legalistic sanity, whereas the Trump II judges are not.
And so any authoritarian's gonna need to take over the courts.
So they're doing a rush to take over the courts with just,
the sort of crazy out of the people who are just like we are just here to impose christian nationalism and oligarchy so so i think it's a race there uh so that's that's one issue i think that um as you alluded to uh we can still win it it's already an unfair election they've already gerrymandered you can you can win you know i mean with memphis they cut memphis into these districts so that
20% black population goes with a huge rural white congressional district to make their votes pointless.
So we already have an unfair election, but you can still win an unfair election, as my colleague Lucan Wei always points out.
In a competitive authoritarian system, you can still win.
You just have to win by 25, 30 points, what happened in Hungary.
It has to be too big to rig.
You just have to have a massive victory.
So we can still win this, and that is why everything is on the midterms.
They're trying to lock down the media, so it's going to be heavy when CBS is going to report whatever Trump tells them to report.
