Some pundits interpreted Trump’s 2024 win as a permanent
political realignment, Others disagreed, seeing the swing toward
Trump as due to anti-incumbent feelings, Republicans set out to
redistrict states to guarantee control of Congress after the 2026
midterm election, The redistricting may have backfired,
Anti-incumbent feeling has turned against the Republicans, In

prohibits it, In Tarrant County Texas the Republicans are cutting
