We were there for 20 years, spent over $2.4 trillion, lost over 2,400 service people, and never had to, you know, qualify it as a war.
Say that to the families of over 2,400 people.
Say that to the fact that our treasury lost over $2 trillion.
So there has to be a different type of conversation about where does jurisdictional prudence for a commander-in-chief start and when does authorizing ability for a president of the United States begin.
Because I do think those things have gotten very, very muddied over the years.
And again, this is not a democratic... That's a left-right center.
So I think what President Obama said is absolutely correct, where it feels very odd that you can say that we are okay with partisan gerrymandering but no other forms, especially when you consider the fact that over 92% of this country has congressional maps that are not competitive.
This country is so gerrymandered.
And it's actually embarrassing in the way that it's been gerrymandered.
I have long believed that we need national redistricting reform because this is not okay where we continue to have politicians that are picking their voters instead of voters picking their politicians.
We need to have national gerrymandering reform.
I also know that what's happening right now and what we are continuing to see and why this is such a heated issue for a lot of people is you think about what's happening right now in just the past year.
Where these decisions that are being made by the Trump-Vance administration on going after these basic democratic frameworks, right?
The idea that we should nationalize elections, even though we know that's unconstitutional.
Part of the beauty of the Constitution is there are state rights.
We are in control of our elections.
of our elections.
So we should not be nationalizing elections.
The idea that somehow we should get rid of mail-in balloting, which actually we sued, Maryland.
I sued the Trump administration on this, and we're going to win in court on this because the president and the federal government does not have the authority to do that.
