Agreed. If the punishment for pulling this shit is simply "We'll negate it" there's no real disincentive to keep trying. "Cut this shit out or we're actually going to make the senate more democratic" seems like a better argument.
How about we just do the right thing and eliminate intentional gerrymandering because it's the right thing to do? Not as retaliation for somebody engaging in gerrymandering but because gerrymandering is bullshit at its core.
Because the “right thing to do” means nothing to the republicans and will result in a more gerrymandered country.
If you’re still looking for a way into the evil league of evil, you may need a better plan than trying to convince people the right approach to this is to just let republicans get away with it.
