The Virginia Supreme Court made the commonwealth's Democrats' celebrations over creating a 10-1 congressional district map short-lived. We've since been seeing immense levels of cope from the Democrats. Former MSNBC contributor Wajahat Ali has an idea: Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger should just "pull a Ron DeSantis" and ram the redrawn map through. With political analysis like that, it's no wonder Ali was a frequent contributor on MSNBC.
Spanberger should pull a DeSantis and ram through the map.

If Republicans can do it - and without the public vote - why not the rest of us?
Is this a serious question?
You're really stupid, Wally.

And how exactly could she do that? Be specific.
— Frank フランク (@richardrahl1086) May 8, 2026
Can you explain how she does this legally?
— Bill Flashfrybuffalo McBride (@gilescorey) May 9, 2026
Ali didn't specify that the effort had to be legal.
Lil dude - that's what she just tried...

Are you stupid or something?
Little known fact: Florida has a different constitution than Virginia.
— TimOnPoint (@TimOnPoint) May 8, 2026
Because states make their own election laws and then, shockingly enough, have to actually follow those laws.

Dumbfuck.
Does no democrat in the whole damn country understand what a state constitution is?
— DelilahM (@delilahmused) May 9, 2026
Happy to help you understand Waj, every state has different rules.
— Toell Nemesis (@toellsnemesis) May 8, 2026
Because each state has different redistricting laws. Virginia failed because they didn’t follow their own constitutional rules, that is, the specified timing.

If you simply don’t understand the difference between the states maybe don’t make dumb comments.

Maybe stick to doing things legally and in accordance with the state's constitution.

That’s literally what she tried to do. Fortunately rule of law won.

How on earth are you this dense?

They violated the Virginia state constitution.
It’s a thing called “laws”. You wouldn’t understand.
— Burton M (@RealBurtonM) May 8, 2026
Again, Ali never said anything about laws. He just said, "ram it through."
Who needs rules, laws, and a Constitution when you have Communists willing to just "ram it through"?
— Kurt Schemers (@KurtSchemers) May 8, 2026
This is the Democratic Party way - by FORCE.
The Florida map was passed by the state legislature and signed by the governor, legally. It wasn't "rammed through." Ali knows this — he's just having a tantrum.
