Justices have said judges shouldn’t interfere in election disputes so close to the primary process, but their own rulings have triggered a frenzy to draw new congressional maps.
If the logic is that interference this close to the primaries is a bad thing (which it rather obviously is), then the only sound ruling is that NOBODY - including legislatures - can do so.
If, on the other hand they’re going to rule that legislatures can interfere this close to the primaries, then there’s no reason why courts can’t as well.
But of course, as is the simple truth of this Supreme Court, their ruling isn’t based on law, precedent or even logic - it’s based solely on what will benefit Trump and the Republicans and their billionaire owners.
That’s painfully obvious bullshit.
