Not a single mainstream news program ever raises the question " If Republicans are indeed the majority and their policies are popular, why do they work so hard to gerrymander districts and suppress voting?"

Yeah with all the Republicans cries of election stealing why haven’t the Republicans been able to show any proof?

Let’s see…
.Fabricate an election fraud
Popularize same via Faux, Sinclair, etc.
Demand Dem. in charge investigate and prosecute fabricated fraud
Insinuate incompetence and call for their head when they find nothing
Institute Draconian election rules that benefit only them, under the guise
of fixing the non-existant problem.
Remove Dem. official by any means possible, and replace with revanchist authoritarian, who will "Play Ball’ with state GOP.
Yep, that’s them alright.
