What is this talking point about Republican gerrymandering? I keep hearing it, but here in the south every gerrymandered district is built to elect a black Democrat.

Well, they’re gerrymandered to put all the blacks voting in one house seat, and to keep them out of any other districts. So the black representatives have 88% support, but that’s way more than what would be needed to have a safe seat.

It’s their latest s**t which is being spread by their useful idiots in the towns comprising local (i.e. congressional district) levels. There is a good article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2017-02-20-0000/donald-trump-republican-house-democrats

It is a meme for them to repeat. If they say it enough times people will start to believe it. It will get cited in the liberal media and people will be able to cite multiple sources to prove their fake information.
