The Latest Snafus In Trump’s Hijacking Of The Census Were Entirely Predictable | Talking Points Memo

President Trump should not be surprised that his anti-immigrant apportionment gambit is on the brink of collapse because of logistical issues with the census. The risks of rushing the census so the data could be produced before he left office were laid out by the bureau itself earlier this year.

As was often the case over the last four years we were protected from Trump’s evil intentions, not by the strength of our other institutions, so much as by Trump’s gross incompetence. We have dodged a lot of bullets since 2017, largely because Trump, and so many people associated with him, just couldn’t shoot straight.

Anomaly don’t like potentially spurious data, but in this case, I count it as a blessing.

A Trump regime filled with Albert Speers.

Absolutely hope that the adults in the room can see to it that they call a halt to this stunt … and set forth plans to assess what has been obtained so far & determine what gaps exist - and what has to be do to produce a legitimate & non-contrived Census.

The corruption of the Trump administration has been so all pervasive that one has to wonder what has not been altered & messed with.

Albert Speer was Albert Schweitzer compared to these dipshits.

Biden can just revoke the Trump Mob declarations. Hard to know why they’re ramming them through when they’ll never go into effect. It’s like the hinky hires and committee appointments they’re making that will just get cancelled Jan. 21st. Cranky toddlers, all of them.

So much winning. I can’t say I’m tired of it though.

Yeah, and now that there are “known anomalies,” if you try to ram something through, there will be lawsuits from 50 state AGs challenging it.

Stopping the crap was probably why some good guy in the Bureau of the Census leaked the information that there are anomalies in the first place.

Even though it’s Infrastructure Week #202 something tells me that ain’t gonna get built either.

(Note that they’re all standing on the wrong side of the drafting table. Evidently some things are just soooooo hard to get right.)

After this goes tits up for Trump, I imagine Wilbur getting a two-word obituary as in The Gang that Couldn’t Shoot Straight:

Died. Suddenly.

I wish to fuck she would go to Florida and leave the White House grounds alone for the love of god. Why is she doing this right before she moves out?

Because she can. Want to be autocrats do odd things.
