<\/a><\/p>\nAccording to Democrats, if you say we should not draw congressional districts based on race, you must be racist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nBy accident, Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader, finally got it right for once, saying it is the \u201cTrump\u201d court, not the \u201cRoberts\u201d court.<\/span><\/p>\nThat\u2019s true because when Chief Justice John Roberts was appointed, three of these justices were not on the court: Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett.<\/span><\/p>\nThis court is great. That doesn\u2019t mean they always rule for President Trump. They don\u2019t.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nBut it does mean he gets credit for the fact that this court is tremendous.<\/span><\/p>\nDemocrats think that white Americans, by and large, are racist, and thus the government must force white Americans not to be racist by creating racist districts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nGet it? I didn\u2019t think so.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe Democrats believe that you must draw congressional districts that are majority-minority or you\u2019re doing Jim Crow 2.0. Chuck Schumer, the Senate minority leader, said the Supreme Court decision was a return to Jim Crow.<\/span><\/p>\nThe idea that white people are trying to stop black people from voting in the United States is ridiculous. Take Virginia: The white candidate, Abigail Spanberger, won 90% of the black vote. The black candidate, Winsome Sears, won the majority of the white vote.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe American people are not nearly as racist as Chuck Schumer wishes they were.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe reason he\u2019s upset is not because he believes that black people are discriminated against. It\u2019s because black people are disproportionately Democratic voters, and he believes that Democratic seats are going to disappear. That\u2019s called normal gerrymandering, a part of our process since the very beginning, where the state legislature, state commission, or another body draws the districts within a state.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThere\u2019s nothing wrong with that. This is why I wasn\u2019t complaining when California decided to redistrict. Texas just did it. Florida just did it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThis is the way that states work, and there\u2019s nothing illegal about it. It may be a bad thing, but there is no alternative to it. Every alternative that has been tried is a giant failure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThey\u2019re so damn scared of losing the midterm elections.<\/span><\/p>\nThe 15th Amendment provides that the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat\u2019s actually happening here is that Democrats, as per their usual arrangement, are trying to claim that normal politics is racism. And what they\u2019re <\/span>really<\/span><\/i> upset about, of course, is that more and more people are moving to the South, which means more southern congressional districts, which means <\/span>more Republicans<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\nIf you look at a map of projected 2030 congressional reapportionment, based on population trajectory, what you see is massive gains in the South. You see Texas picking up another four seats and Florida picking up another three. You can see North Carolina picking up another seat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe places that are gaining votes are the Republican areas. Red states are likely to gain 8 to 10 congressional seats by 2030.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThat means another 10 electoral votes in the presidential election.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nDemocrats are claiming that for them to lose politically, America or the Supreme Court must be racist, and they insist that we impose actual racist top-down policy in order to protect them politically.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat\u2019s really amazing here is that President Trump \u2014 who has been widely derided by the Left, saying Trump is trying to do Jim Crow 2.0 \u2014 has an approval rating among black Americans that is at an all-time high. The numbers are pretty astounding.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat we\u2019re seeing right now in the numbers is that President Trump and the Republican Party are chipping away at the long-term advantage that Democrats have had with black voters. Trump\u2019s approval among blacks at this point in his first term was at 12%. He\u2019s up to 16% at this point.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nYou might say that isn\u2019t that big of a shift. But Republicans absolutely love this shift because Democrats have had such a long-term advantage. The fact that he\u2019s actually gaining ground versus where he was in term number one has major implications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nIt turns out Democrats shouting \u201cracist, racist\u201d over and over and over is not winning over additional black voters. It\u2019s alienating some of them.<\/span><\/p>\nAnd calling everyone, whether it\u2019s the Supreme Court, President Trump, or conservatives, racist when we are the ones following the rules of this amazing constitutional republic is un-American.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
