If we had a nickel for every time we or some other Conservative had to explain how the Senate and House work to some raging blue-check we’d have a crapload of nickels.
And then Bernie Sanders would campaign on taxing our nickels.
Anyway, this John Ales guy (who weI still have no idea who he is or why he has a blue check) was very angry that South Dakota’s senators would not be voting as he wished and then took it a step further and whined that California should have more senators … because.
Painful.
Population is irrelevant to the Senate, John.
Plenty of peeps were more than happy to educate him a little … which only made him mad.
Bunch of fiery civics teachers here. This tweet was about a vote to impeach passing the proportional house and the antiquated, non proportional senate blockading justice. As per usual. It’s broken.

Fiery Civics teachers.
Huh, is that what they call people who actually know how our government works?
So mad.
And all people did was try and help him out a little since he clearly didn’t know how things work.
That's how it works to protect the interests of other states from California. I totally welcome California leaving the Union if they don't like it.

See? Helpful.
It’s not America, it’s the United States of America and a republic, not a democracy by the original design. I’m for Trump leaving too but I’m not overriding the genius design

Shew! Someone with a little common sense on the Left.
It’s so rare these days.
You do understand that the senators represent each *state* and not the population, right?
The house represents the population directly. https://t.co/G3q1NxlR15

We’re not so sure he did understand that.
Let’s hope he does now.
