So how many โ€“ we have 435 congressional seats.

Who โ€“ the way that you draw those congressional districts is that you try to draw them evenly based on population so that everybody has equal representation, right?

One person, one vote, fundamental principle of American law.

But you don't just count the American citizens.

You also count the illegal aliens.

And so for example, the state of Ohio lost a congressional seat in the last census.

and states that have high illegal immigrant populations picked up congressional seats.

So you're actually taking away congressional representation from American citizens and giving it to illegal aliens.

Even if you don't give them the right to vote, you're still destroying the voting power of American citizens.

Because it's based on population, including illegal immigrants.

Well, Donald Trump tried a proposal...

that Democrats went nuts over and was litigated in the courts, so we would have to try again, that would ask citizenship status during the U.S.

The idea being that if you ask more people their citizenship status, you get fewer people who are answering that question.

I think that we should make it, and I do think this would require an act of Congress, but I think that it would be constitutional, is we should just say that illegal aliens are not counted for purposes of congressional representation.

Democrats would call that racist, but it's just common sense policy.

Well, you know, it's basically illegal now in California to ask for voter ID, which is crazy, which is totally insane.

But, you know, my my my view and I'm sure you got many, many listeners in the great state of California.

The next time you're pulled over by a police officer, just tell them that you're on your way to vote.
