Beto O’Rourke: Governors in [blue] states all say some variation of “You better watch out what you do. If you do that, we’re going to strike back.” I would love, and I think the country would love, if Democrats got off the back foot and stopped reacting and responding with “If you do this, then I’m going to do that.” F— that. Take the offense—go after these guys. This is the game now. There are no refs; no fouls are going to be called. There’s no consequence or penalty for Trump redrawing the maps in Texas mid-decade. Stop pretending like there is. Stop waiting for them to do it when clearly, that’s what they’re going to do if we’re unsuccessful in this quorum break. We have an opportunity with Democratic governors to seize the initiative and not just wait to be hit and then to hit back, but start that redistricting process now, in California, in New York, and any state where Democrats control the governor’s mansion and the legislature. Quit f—ing around and waiting when you know exactly where this thing is going.

Yep

They want to focus on one battle at a time, because they don’t want to win the war. The Dems he’s complaining about take most of the same bribes as Republicans.

We passed the point of “hitting back” being enough decades ago.

Doesn’t matter if Texas pulls this off, every blue state needs to start proactively fighting back

Like Beto said, if so.eone doesn’t want to fight, they can get the fuck out of office. All they’re doing is stopping someone else from fighting.
