RIP CAGOP

Amazing how this is the result of an Independent Commission.

Gerrymandering cannot correct for fundamental demographic implosion, it can only shift stuff at the edges.

The only thing that comes close to what has happened in California over the last thirty years, is what happened to the MA GOP in the 1940's - 1970's.

Or the Dem Party in Arkansas.

The difference is, if the Arkansas Dems gerrymandered when they still had a trifecta in 2011, they could still have a House seat if they combined Little Rock with the heavily black, Democratic counties along the Mississippi River.

Arkansas Democrats weren't yet ready to accept they would become a permanent minority that would get wiped off the face of the map. Can you really blame them? lol

Hell, some #populist Atlas posters still pretend there's hope for Democrats in states like these. In 2018.

As goes California...

Makes sense. The GOP can't survive the demographic changes. It's only a matter of time before they collapse completely.

Good lord, STOP already. The GOP has survived far worse than this. Just 10 years ago Dems had like 260 House seats, 60 Senate seats, and the presidency. Not to mention tiny little things like the Great Depression and Watergate...

As if the GOP under Trumpism can adapt to demographic changes. The country will be the most ethnic it's ever been. I don't see anything wrong with what I said.

Trump is not going to do more damage to the GOP than the Great Depression or Watergate did. In fact, I highly doubt he'll even do as much damage as Dubya did. The GOP will inevitably surge back once we have a Democratic president just as they did in 2010 despite being left for dead in 2009.
