The president should be able to decide who can be a citizen.
Right.
Big, big political implications on this one.
The big question, of course, is timing here.
If they do, as expected, get rid of the last vestige of the Voting Rights Act, and they do it very quickly, it could have an effect on this year's midterms.
If they do it later in the term,
then it won't take effect till 2028.
But it's possible, if the Voting Rights Act is changed, that Republicans could draw about a dozen more Republican-leaning districts around the country.
And that would be a tremendous advantage for them, a big structural advantage in races for the House.
And that squares with the whole MAGA argument and the Trump argument that if there is racial discrimination in this country, it's against white people.
Wait, how would they change the postmarks?
Absolutely.
I mean, this is one of those core beliefs.
You said he talks about it a lot.
It's kind of like windmills and tariffs.
Donald Trump believes that mail-in voting hurts Republicans.
even though the evidence is just not there to show that.
There was an election in 2020, a special election, where the Democrat ended up beating the incumbent senator in Georgia.
And many Republicans feel that one of the reasons the Republican lost is because Donald Trump disparaged mail-in voting so much.
He discouraged Republicans from using it.
