Will Trump's policies be vindicated, or will the Court put The President in his place?

This is the case I'm watching the closest..if some of the Republican gerrymandering is revisited and/or overturned--there could be a huge power shift in the coming years:

You realize that if gerrymandering is overturned it will hit both Democrats and Republicans equally?

Or maybe you don't.

I realize that there will be some shake-ups in both directions..and I believe that the result will be a truer representation of districts and the views of those within.


IMO, the changes..if the redistricting of the past ten years is undone--and the Karl Rove master plan comes to naught...is that Republicans will lose out...not so sure that the Democrats would take advantage or not..over the long term....it's an open question.

As for me..regardless of who would ultimately benefit--it would undo some of the political machinations of both parties..and that can't be bad, now can it?
