    Well sure, but there is a critical point at which they can’t use those to compensate anymore and that point is already passed them I think. That’s why you’re seeing them try to steal elections, they know there is no legitimate way to win them now. So unless democrats do some really stupid things, they may not have the population to gain the minority of votes they need to keep power.

      Quite arguably, they stole the Presidential elections in both 2000 and 2016. 2000 was aided and abetted by the Supreme Court (hence “pack the Supreme Court with cronies”), while 2016 was aided and abetted by Putin and the Russians - at least that shit is new in the Republican playbook.
